Antique Fans!
This is one I picked up in CT for $15. I need to restore it.

Ah, yes, safety-be-damned. My grandmother had a house full of those things. We used them to torture Star Wars figures and such. Wish I'd kept a few of them.

cool fan. I got a ge that I use on a regular basis. Kind of sounds like an airplane from a distance.
Are the blades made of brass?

I'm an antiques fan, but I'm not really a fan of antique fans. That one's cool though.
I bet you could toss a turd thru those ugly Dyson things and nothing would happen.
