Bought a non-working fan today as I wanted a Knapp-Monarch fan from this era and it was really cheap. Plus I have enough working fans to power a 747.
I recently IDed a similar fan for a drive by poster who copied my comment for their eBay description but at least the photos were right side up.
In 1935 this fan was $5.40 with no on/off switch. It had only one speed. The cast iron base is very heavy for a fan this size.
It has an interesting cage design which looks a bit like a flower.
So, this must be the predecessor of the "clap on, clap off" devices??? :P [;>)
I am a fan of your fan
So do you jut unplug it to turn it off, then?
Thank you very much NevadaBlades. Not quite the clapper.
And thank you very much elanski.
Thank you SpiritBear. Yes you just unplug it. An on/off button was an option.
Thank you

I have a lot of fans too, and yours is cool! First time I've ever seen a JackFrost fan.
Thank you very much Signaholic. There are others on the net but for this variation is rare. The only other examples are just the cage.
Thank you
