Desk Fan. This four blade "G.E.C Witton" "Freezor" fan is in "as found" condition. The fan body and lovely cast iron base have retained much of their original black painted finish, although there are patches of paint loss and surface rust, mainly, to the cradle, as well as the usual marks, scuffs and scratches that you would associate with an item of this age. There are no splits or cracks to the four solid brass blades or cage, that I can find, and the central boss has ''G.E.C. Ltd." and the magnet logo.
One of the blades has a small kink by the outside rivet. The blades measure 38.5 cm (15 1/4 inches) across.
There are no breaks or missing pieces to the brass cage or arms, however, one of the screws which hold the arms to the motor is a replacement and two of the arms are missing the clips wchich hold the cage.
The top of the motor has the manufacurers brass plate.
The motor moves up and down i its cradle.
The swith to the base is present and moves as it should from 'off' to '3', there are no cracks or chips.The fan will require rewiring and I have been unable to test if it is in working order. However, the blades do rotate smoothly.
It is sold as a "collectable item" and if being bought to use, it would need to be checked and refurbished by a qualified electrician or engineer before use.The fan measures 48 cm (19 inches) to the top of the cage.
