The----Auction Details

A vintage circa late 1950's Revelair electric fan

It features a stylish streamlined deco cast metal base
The motor housing is also cast metal
with a fabulous bullet shape

This fan has metal blades and a chrome grille

The blades oscillate,
moving both from side-to-side and up-and-down

This unit is in working order and has three speeds
with the on/off switch on the base

When operating it is smooth and well balanced
and pumps out a huge volume of air when on high

It retains its Revelair badge on the front,
although it is a bit faded

The fan is 450mm wide by 500mm high

This unit is very heavy weighing about 10Kg
so postage could be costly
