Just found this pic on Shorpy. Perhaps it's been posted here before, but in case it hasn't: http://www.shorpy.com/node/4676?size=_original
Looks like they might be some good ones up there? Can't quite tell. Picture was taken in 1921, but the fans look to be much earlier.
Gotta love the lady's shoes too.

Check out the base on the fan in question on the far right.  Has a Interior Conduit/Lundell kinda look but...........the motor "appears" like a upright tin can. If it is.......Mmmmm my kinda stuff dudes...DC Towle or Paragon of Lancaster?  Last edited on Fri Jul 3rd, 2009 01:14 am by Russ Huber

I believe the fan second from the right is a Holtzer Cabot roundball. It has that distinctive notch halfway up its base...I am going to guess the fan on the far right is an Interior Conduit or Sprague by virtue of its base design.

| My guess is the one on the left is a Dayton, from what I think is a strip badge across the cage ring. The one with the switch part way up the neck could also be a Sprague/GE.
