Hello,
Looking for replacement 12" blue blades for a 70's Panasonic fan. My youngest daughter had broken the blades by sticking a metal pole into the cage while the fan was operating. After many years of looking for a replacement, I found a complete fan and bought it only to have the post office crush the box and everything survived other than (you guessed it) the fan blades. So I'm still looking. Any help would be appreciated.

Please post pictures? There are quite a few number of shades of blue for these fans.

Hello Rob,
Thanks for your response. Does the attached photo help identify the blades? Let me know what you want me to focus in on and I can post another photo if it would help.
Thanks and best regards,

It would also help if you posted what the fan looks like as there is many different designs. That picture is rather depressing though.

I might have a replacement blade for one of these. I have a fan that is missing a few parts but I believe the blade is intact.
Email me please.

Same color? Looks like the one he has is dark blue in color.

Hello Rob,
This is a picture from eBay, but this is my fan model.
Any assistance is sincerely appreciated.

That is an early 80's model, probably 1980 to be exact. They had darker blue blades. I have the same exact one but I don't have any parts. If I do find a blade though I will definitely let you know.

Hello Rob,
I bought it originally in 1978 in Columbus Ohio, so you're right-on. So now I have two complete fans with two sets of broken blades.

Would you be willing to sell one for parts some time? Mine might need a new motor.

Hello Rob,
Chances are that I won't find two blades, so I probably won't be needing two motors. The challenge is that I have $45 invested in it already.
Regards,
Fred
