Here is a very rare Porter K&D #3 Fan and Motor. These were made in the 1890’s from around 1891 to 1896. I hooked it up to a 6 volt battery and it runs great. Better than some modern fans. It has no damage and is all original as far as I can see. If you collect the 1800’s motors or fans then here is really great one for the collection for sure. It had to be in a collection for some time to be in such great shape. It is 6″ high with out the wood base and around 9″ high to top of fan blade with the base being counted. It will be insured also. I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking; Enjoy. The item “1891 PORTER ANTIQUE VINTAGE ELECTRIC EDISON ERA BIPOLAR FAN & MOTOR” is in sale since Tuesday, August 16, 2016. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Kitchen & Home\Electric Fans”. The seller is “beetlestomp” and is located in Fayetteville, Georgia. This item can be shipped to United States.
