Eskimo Fan with 11" spider web fan cage. It has a cast iron base with name plate on the base. It has one speed and oscillates. Also it has chrome rear housing. I think it is late 40s early 50s.

These were manufactured by Bersted Manufacturing Co. You're right on with the age. Bersted Mfg Co made all types of fairly cheap consumer appliances, including other fans such as Rex-Ray (Rexall) "drug store" models. You can find out more here - http://www.jitterbuzz.com/bersted.html if you're interested.
Thanks that is a great site. I thought it was Bersted but wasn't quite sure. Sad to hear they were cheaply made. Strange as it 60+ years old and works well. I have a Zero fan also which also works well and I will post it later.
Thank you Manikin.
