THIS LISTING IS FOR A RARE CIRCA 1919 ANTIQUE 16 G. BRASS FAN – CATEGORY 34021 – TYPE AUU – FORM V1 – SPEC-271088 – 1 – NP16652 – VOLTS 110 – CYCLES 60 – IN EXCELLENT WORKING CONDITION. THE ONLY PIECE OF IDENTIFICATION THAT IS NOT SHOWN IS THE NUMBER. AFTER MANY HOURS OF RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND ONE OTHER FAN THAT IS THIS MODEL, YOU CAN FIND IT BY LOOKING UP HISTORY OF GE ANTIQUE FANS THEN UNDER THE 5TH LISTING YOU WILL SEE A NUMBER OF POSTS. (THIS IS BECAUSE ON ANTIQUE GE FANS, SOME JUNIOR FANS, MEANING STANDARD FANS CAME WITHOUT SERIAL NUMBERS, WHICH IS UNKNOWN TO MANY) IT ALSO SHOWS THAT THE ARMS HOLDING THE CAGE ARE THE CORRECT MATERIAL, WHICH IS STEEL. I JUST WANT YOU TO HAVE AS MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT THIS FAN BEFORE PURCHASING IT. IT MAKES THIS FAN IDENTIFIABLE HOWEVER THROUGH THE OTHER NUMBERS I GAVE YOU THAT ARE ON THE FAN, EACH REPRESENTS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. SO THE V1 WAS PROBABLY ONLY PRODUCED IN 1919 SINCE THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST FORMS IN THE PRODUCTION LINE. IT IS SO RARE THAT IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND (BUT FACTS ARE FACTS AND GE FANS OF THIS PERIOD ARE DATED BY THERE FORM NUMBER, WHICH THIS ONES FORM NUMBER IS – V1 – WHICH IF YOU WERE TO RESEARCH IT YOU WOULD FIND IT TO BE AN 1919 FAN WITH BRASS BLADES AND STEEL CAGE HOWEVER A LITTLE MORE RESEARCH WOULD TELL YOU THAT EVEN THOUGH MOST HAD A STEEL CAGE THEY MADE A SMALL AMOUNT WITH BRASS CAGES, WHICH THIS HAS/IS) AS FAR AS CONDITION I WOULD RATE THIS IN A EXCELLENT 100 YEAR OLD ANTIQUE CONDITION STATE, DUE TO THE FACT THAT ALL THREE SPEEDS RUN SMOOTHLY AND DISTINCTLY. THE BRASS BLADES AND CAGE ARE NOT DAMAGED HOWEVER COULD USE A NICE POLISHING IF YOU CHOOSE TOO. THE WIRING HAS NO DAMAGE AT ALL AND THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE REST OF THE FAN EXCEPT A FEW SCRATCHES ON TWO OF THE BLADES ON THE SAME SIDE THAT. MIGHT BE EASILY BUFFED OUT AND A SCUFF HERE AND THERE ON THE BODY BUT VERY SMALL. ALSO IT IS A FACT THAT THE FIRST THING YOU DO WITH AN ANTIQUE FAN AND WANT IT TO WORK PROPERLY, IS TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL CORD WITH A NEW ONE, SO UNLESS YOU WANT IT ALL ORIGINAL JUST TO SIT ON DISPLAY, YOU WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE CORD EVEN IF IT LOOKS FINE BECAUSE IT IS A FIRE HAZARD. UPDATE, I TOOK OFF THE FAN FROM THE ADDED WOODEN BASE AND UNDERNEATH THE FAN, I FOUND THAT THE INSERT WAS NEVER TAKEN OFF SO YOU CAN LOOK AT THE ADDED PICTURES AND SEE. THE EXTRA WOODEN BASE WILL COME SEPARATELY WITH THE FAN IF YOU WANT IT. ON TOP OF THAT IT IS SAID TO BE TRUE THAT TYPE AUUs GE FANS ARE SAID TO BE THE MOST SAUGHT AFTER GE FAN TYPES BY COLLECTERS, AND NOT ONLY IS MINE A TYPE AUU, BUT IT IS THE ONLY AUU-V1-34021 GE BRASS BLADE FAN FOR SALE ANYWHERE, NOT TO MENTION IT IS EVEN MORE SCARCE DUE TO ITS COMBINATION BRASS CAGE. TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH THE MORE I HAVE RESEARCHED THE MORE VALUABLE THIS FAN IS BECOMING, SO DONT BE SURPRISED IF I INCREASE MY ASKING PRICE IF I FIND OUT INFORMATION THAT THIS FAN IS EVEN MORE SCARCE THAN IT ALREADY IS, IT WOULD ONLY MAKE SENSE TO, SUPPLY AND DEMAND. ALSO THIS FAN IS IN SUCH GREAT CONDITION THAT IF ANY AMATEUR WANTED TO REFINISH THIS FAN TO A GLOSSY SHINY FAN, IT WOULDNT TAKE ALOT OF EFFORT COMPARED TO MOST. OR SOMEONE COULD JUST SWITCH OUT THE ONE WALL WIRE WITH AN ORIGINAL REPLACEMENT AND JUST LEAVE IT COMPLETELY ORIGINAL, PAINT, WIRES, CAGE, BLADES AND ALL THATS WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY SITE IT IS LISTED FOR SALE ON, AND IVE BEEN GETTING A GOOD RESPONSE, SO ONCE IT SELLS, WHICH COULD BE ANYTIME, THIS LISTING WOULD OBVIOUSLY END. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE. COLLECTORS OUT THERE, I BET YOU COULD USE THIS FORM/CATEGORY TO FILL A SPOT IN YOUR COLLECTION! AND SINCE I ONLY HAVE A FEW THINGS TO PRICE THIS BY, ID SAY IM PRICING IT LOW AND NOW EVEN LOWER BUT I WONT START MY PRICE ANY LOWER…………. SO THEREARE TWO THINGS I WILL END THIS WITH, 1 I CAN CONFIRM THAT THERE ARE ATLEAST TWO OTHER FANS THAT ARE THIS FORM AND CATEGORY, HOWEVER ONLY ONE OTHER ONE WITH THE BRASS CAGE. REMEMBER THAT THE STEEL ARMS ARE PERIOD AND FORM CORRECT FOR THE ONES WITH A BRASS CAGE, AND 2. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
