Antique Early Carlisle & Finch Hand Crank Bipolar Electric Motor Dynamo
For your consideration is this antique early Carlisle & Finch hand crank bipolar motor/dynamo. This motor is from my private collection and is in presentable original condition. The motor was tested when I acquired it and did run on low voltage DC. I forgot what voltage but it was around 10-20 volts. The motor is sadly missing the large pulley with crank that would have been on the spindle up above. The commutator appears to have electrical tape around the edge. I did not put this there and was like that when I acquired this motor. There is no severe damage to this piece aside from normal wear from a piece of this age. It will obviously need servicing if you plan to run it as I only ever had it for display purposes in my collection. Could be used to mock up an early fan, left as is, or put back together by sourcing the pulley/crank. A nice original early motor that would be perfect for any fan or early electrical collection.
