    I think its a wall fan - it just looks old and I can't find another one like it - It is from Sears Roebuck's Store. The make is Arctic - just curious what it might be worth? Found in my parents basement.

      Old fans like these can range from $10 to $100 depending on the size and condition. I have a small, non-working, GE fan that I picked up for $10 just for display purposes. Yours seems to have some condition issues (rust and paint chipping). Clean it up and get it working. I suggest replacing the wiring before using it. Does it work? Yours was made to sit on table or mount to the wall.
      Here is one made by Arctic on eBay, not just like yours though. http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-ANTIQUE-OLD-ARCTIC-10-INCH-ELECTRIC-FAN-/350430334833?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5197468f71#ht_500wt_1156

      Yes I plugged it in and works - Ya I could clean it up a little , but its not to bad of shape - just curious what it would go for in working condition as it sits?

      Do a search on eBay for "vintage electric fan". This will give you a rough idea of the value of similar fans. You can click on "completed listings" on the left side of the page to see some that have already sold.
