Ultra-Rare 1975 Hunter Brass Limited Edition Ceiling Fan – Fully Restored, Lifetime Guaranteed. A true American collectible – only a handful of these special brass-embellished Hunter fans were ever produced. Manufactured exclusively for select dealers in the Nashville, TN area – the second birthplace of Hunter fans – this fully restored 1975 Hunter Limited Brass Edition combines powerful industrial performance with rich vintage charm. This is not a reproduction – it is a genuine original, painstakingly restored for modern use and guaranteed for life. Tested with modern airflow meters for verified performance. Moves enough air to make a 78°F room feel breezy and cool, perfect for. Historic or luxury homes. Why 1970s Hunter Originals Are The Best Ever Made. Hunter fans evolved dramatically over the decades. This 1975 edition represents the peak of American craftsmanship, for several reasons. Heavier, beefier motor: 40 lbs weight vs. 34 lbs modern originals PLUS 10 LBS in brass embellishments = 50 LBS. Superior 2-speed shaded pole motor: No start capacitor or speed coil required – simple, reliable design? Oversized oil bath system: Holds 40% more oil (1.4 oz) for longer maintenance-free operation, at least 35 years in a normal household environment, 20 years in a hot warehouse running 24/7. Youtube has videos on how to check oil level every decade or so, but for the most part it is fill it and forget it. Archimedean Screw oil circulation system: Ancient engineering that continuously lubricates bearings during operation. Result: These fans can run 20+ years on one fill of oil before you may have to add a teaspoon or two, and many operate smoothly after 50, 75, or even 90 years with minimal servicing. The final photo is NOT of this fan but shows how the oil bath system works, the bearing is covered in the oil cup usually within 1/2 of the top of the cup and can last for a decade or more before it slowly evaporates, synthetic even longer. Custom GE larger fan blades & Arms for improved airflow (However you will have your choice of original bright or antique brass in regular or reverse air design, plus oak, cherry or mahogany blades). Clear enamel sealed inside and out for long-term tarnish protection, plus antique brass does not tarnish like bright brass does. Fully disassembled, inspected, and professionally refinished – over 40 hours of skilled work. The excellent original condition after 50 years speaks to the fan’s build quality – but the restoration elevates it to museum-grade condition ready for another century of service. True Rarity – Once in a Lifetime. These limited brass editions were rarely offered and are virtually never seen on the resale market. You simply won’t find another fan like this. Perfect for Vintage, Period-Correct Homes. Ideal for homes built in the 1960s through 1970s, this fan delivers authentic period-correct design while outperforming any modern ceiling fan on the market. Optional Matching Fans Available. These custom brass embellished fans were fabricated by Wayne Cobia and Scott “Sparky” Owen, both longtime Hunter collaborators and respected Church of Christ ministers in Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama. Truly a collector’s piece with both historical and spiritual heritage. Oil Bath Bearing System – Has preserved this fan for 50 years and now restored for another 50-100 years. The oversized oil cup holds 4 ounces, about 4 times more than your vintage hunters who have a 10 year oil supply, so it is safe to tell to your grandchildren to check the oil in the year 2165, should it start making a little noise. The Hunter Original Oil Bath fans made in the US held only 1 oz (6 teaspoons). Like all oil bath fans they lose oil only thru evaporation, so that is why the oil lasts so long before you will hear the fan start making a little noise, fear not, no damage will occurs to the heavy duty bearings unless you ran it for over a year without oil. Make sure the fan gets serviced, not thrown away by some dim wit grandchild, use your label maker to place a small label on the wall switch “Should this fan ever make noise, just add oil”. Industrial Applications like running the fan in a hot dusty warehouse 24/7 may use oil faster and get dirtier requiring a check every 20 years. Remember for normal household applications it will be fill it and forget it, till you meet Jesus or go to limbo to wait for judgement day. Due to overwhelming interest, please use the business card con tact method for questions.

Vintage General Electric 12 inch brass blade fan restored. I bought the fan about six months ago and it seems maybe fifteen twenty years ago. The fan was completely restored. I guess I did a light and freshen up and a life restoration. The gearbox was repacked with new grease The power cord was replaced. The brass blade was repolished. Some light touch up paint was used in some areas. All the brass nuts and bolts were taken out and thoroughly polished. New wicks were put in the oil cups finally, a clear varnish was applied for nice shiny clean appearance. The fan runs great on all 3 speeds and oscillates. The way it should. It’s good for another hundred years.
