Very unique antique 12 Dayton fan with high-luster Japanning and brass. Rear gearbox is damaged and needs to be replaced. Cord was cut before I got it. Have conne Ted tester wire and works well on all 3 speeds. Has always been on my project list, but trying to reduce the ones I have. Have video of it running, can send upon request.

Old and original guaranteed. Shows rust, wear and use as shown. It has not been tested. The motor does spin freely. It is heavy weighs around 26 pounds. Barn fresh not cleaned. Look at photos to understand condition. Dimensions are shown in the photos. Very rare unique early electric motor. For some reason the ID tag was flipped over.

This fan is in amazing original condition with the original paint unpolished brass blades and a partial label on the switch still. This is a rare example of this fan which is still completely original. Later number serial “772833”. It works great on all 3 speeds and is VERY quiet. I don’t think this fan was run too much honestly. The brass joint on the cage is broken and needs to be replaced, as well as one missing screw which attaches the cage to the motor which was replaced with an incorrect one which can be seen in photos.

Antique Emerson Electric 52 Ceiling Fan Motor 34641 Oil Bath 1915 U. This fan style was originally part of the non ornamental “Trojan” line that began around 1904. When Emerson ended the Trojan line sometime around circa 1912-13, the Trojan ceiling fan was marketed with only. “Emerson” on the motor tag. Of note is the ceiling fan motor styling is very similar to that of the Trojan “Pancake” desk fan models (Types 5110, 5210), only turned horizontal for ceiling fan use. The WESCO Supply Catalog NO. 150 circa 1910, stated these “Ceiling fans furnish the maximum breeze in proportion to first cost and are well suited for saloons, restaurants, and places where speed regulation, decorative design, or finish are not of great importance”. It’s always amazing that many of these machines still run over 100 years later, a testament to the honest engineering incorporated in their design. Preowned unrestored aged condition, including original paint, oxidation, soiling, missing switchplate, switch/cover see images. Original 1913-17 circa Type 34641 52 Ceiling Fan Motor 110V 60 Cycles (see motor & tag images). We were told this fan motor was removed from an old local neighborhood grocery in Houston, Texas years ago. Just tested for listing see video, (bypassed burned out speed coil), ran smoothly on work bench, though needing full restoration work before installing for use. Will be packed well to survive trip by experienced fan motor shipper. Please see images for a pictorial description and ask any questions.

The fan is in excellent condition for its age with normal wear including scratches and scuffs. It has been recalled as seen. I tested the fan, leaving it on for about 10 minutes and it worked good. It was a bit noisy of course, but still worked. A great piece for a collector as it’s quite a rare find. It measures at 11.25 inches tall. The blade measures at 8 inches across. It will be fully insured and carefully packed to prevent any damage.
