I am offering this restored 12" Model 45K Wizard for sale. The fan was completely disassembled, bead blasted, cleaned and painted. Wrinkle finish paint was used on painted parts, all other parts were polished. The fan works well on all 3 speeds and oscillates well.
SOLD
For further info or questions, you may send me a PM or email me at jfengel@hot.rr.com.
Thanks for looking.
John

| Oh my! What a beautiful fan! I will surly be talking with my parents on this one! I need more fans in my collecting! And considering mine does not even work, being deprived from them is torture! :)

Of all the Bersted fans , I think this model is the classeist of them all and will have a collectible value of significance some day (if the gearbox is working) My opinion only and open to other thoughts from the insightful Eskimo Kid.
happy fan collector

Randy, thanks for the compliment. It was one of my favorites but I needed the room.
Geoff, I agree totally. These are classy, and the gear box on this one was fine. The other weak area on these is the motor windings. You have to handle them very gently.

That's a very attractive design. I will admit that I'm still very partial to Bersted's "spiderweb" cage seen on the Eskimos.

Those of us that are ESKIMO experts call that fan the Black Widow.
