First Vornado WITH BADGE, Early Jet Propulsion Theory Fan Housing 1947 NICE ⭐️

Description

Vintage Vornado Model 12 D1 3 Speed Floor Fan housing. I believe serious fan collectors could verify. Includes mount clips for fan motor. First Vornado fan circa 1947-48 and sold for .95 in it’s day. Today in current US dollars the cost would be 9.39. High tech for the day. Models after 1951 did not have name badge over front grill. This fan housing is super nice. With one wash down you can see the paint is nice and has minor issues for it’s age. Additional cleaning will be required. Please refer to photos. Ding on front and back fender has some minor waves. Paint loss on edges of course. Great industrial piece. The fan is based on the new idea of jet propulsion in 1947 which is obvious from the design and patents that were made. Advertised in its day for the best room circulation as air conditioning did not exist. Very rare to come across an original in this condition. Condition is "For parts or not working", no motor.But exceptional housing. Please just let me know if you need additional photos. Linda
