You can see the frame.It will be like a needle in a haystack trying to find another frame.I wonder where they were made?There's no tags on it.

You have one!!! Do you plan on parting with that small K-mart box fan anytime soon? Hope you can fix up that Viking.

The late Jim Lindsay seemed to think they might be Fascos.

I had never heard that.I thought I read somewhere that this fan was from the late 30s.Did Fasco make window fans?
