FUNCTION: Desk/Table or Wall-Mounted Fan, Changeable Tilt to FanHead, Keyhole in Base for Wall Mount
COMPONENTS: Metal Base, 4 aluminum Blades, Protective Metal Cage,2-Prong Plug
CONDITION: Fair/Good Operational & Art Deco AestheticConfiguration, Runs, good Plug & Cord (cord does show some age but nothing bad). There’s a bolt missing that controls the oscillating feature… someone put an aftermarket bolt and nut in that feature, and it will oscillate a little as long as the nut stays tight. Please see attached video of the fan working, but wanted to point out that that is not the original bolt in the oscillating feature and that it will need repaired if you want it to oscillate property, all three speeds work perfectly! Obvious tarnish and surface rusting on the fan from age… could be restored with some elbow grease… this is a nice, unusual shaped grille fan!
