Original 1930s Art-Deco Robbins & Myers Bronze Blade Electric Desk Fan:
A superb example of American industrial design, this rare Robbins & Myers Inc. electric desk fan, List No. 22004, boasts a striking cast metal construction with beautifully aged bronze-tone finish and four sculpted brass blades protected by an elegantly geometric cage. Made in Springfield, Ohio, USA, this fan dates to the 1930s and features a powerful motor designed for 115 volts, 60 cycle AC current at 1.3 amps. The streamlined Art Deco housing and stepped base with original selector switch exemplify the bold engineering aesthetics of the pre-war era. With its original factory badge and deeply patinated character, this piece is not only a testament to early 20th-century American craftsmanship but also a functional piece of decorative nostalgia. A must-have for collectors of industrial design or vintage home furnishings.
