    This one brings us back to EMERSON ELECTRIC by manufacturer, though its (aluminum) nameplate has unfortunately been badly marred and doesn't now still show much more actual info. I would suspect it is the actual newest of the bunch (late 1930's/early 40's?) only because of its sorta plain brown color and shape/style. It has the shortest hanger pipe of 'em all (thus it is likely the only one of them that I might truly be able to ever actually re-use in my house, with its low ceilings?) but no surviving hanger cover. It also has a LEVOLIER switch inside its bottom part. There is something (I don't know what, maybe another inductor/xformer thingie like my GE fan #4?) hidden under the one small cast and perforated cover-thingie on its topside...looks to be made such that a 2nd one of whatever that hidden thing is coulda (or was?) also been there too. (??)
