Antique Westinghouse Brass Blade & Guard Desk Fan Early Rare Original Paint Nice

Posted by admin On September 20, 2021

Antique Westinghouse Brass Blade & Guard Desk Fan Early Rare Original Paint Nice. 12 Westinghouse Stationary Desk Fan 104V 133CY circa 1905-06. Restored approximately 25 years ago. Seldom seen rare 133 Cycle. 1st version of Tank Fan right after the Pancake. Larger Vent Holes, Smooth yoke, Struts attach directly to round profile, Solid ring guard center. Early switch with no threaded hole to hold fiber plate, different base design. Early collector quality fan for the Westinghouse Collector. Very rare version in a very rare cycle, (Tesla’s original cycle design). This fan has been in my possession for over 25 years. It was restored preserving the stunning original paint, if any touch up was done it was only lightly(not over done) touched up using PPG or Glasurit automotive single stage urethane. The fan is 100% original Westinghouse. The blade and guard are both original Westinghouse as is all the brass. The original blade that came on the fan when found at a flea market was actually a cast brass hub early Tank blade that had two wings sawed off. Being an impossible blade to locate, we used a stamped brass hub blade that Westinghouse quickly adopted on the early Tanks. I have not tested it lately, but it ran when first restored. I only displayed it through the years because of the 133 cycles only allowed it to run a short while at about 1/2 speed. It was only shown to a handful of collectors and has never been shown at Fan Fair, so it has largely been incognito through the years. I displayed it at home without a cord, because I considered it a nuisance on the shelf. Please ask any questions and I will be happy to answer. Out of curiosity and some request, I checked to see if the fan would run. I was unable to make it run through the switch though the switch is complete and the coil does not appear to be burned out. I bypassed the switch and was able to get it to run directly to the head wire after a push on the blade. Please see all images for a pictorial description and ask any questions.

V. EARLY E. J. DENT No 6037 ANEROID DESK BAROMETER & THERMOMETER IN RARE OAK CASE

Posted by admin On July 6, 2021

FOR SALE IS AN EXTREMELY EARLY MID VICTORIAN ANEROID DESK OR MANTLE BAROMETER BY EDWARD JOHN DENT THE FAMOUS ENGLISH CLOCKMAKER. THE INSTRUMENT HAS THE VERY LOW SERIAL NUMBER 6037. THE BAROMETER IS HOUSED IN A RARE UPRIGHT VERSION OF THE DENT SLOPING OAK DISPLAY CASE. This elegant example is comprised of a 4 3/4 barometer with a lacquered brass casing featuring a decorative milled edge. The silvered dial has a scale reading 28 to 31 inches of atmospheric pressure with seven weather indications around the top section. The bottom half of the dial contains a semi-circular spirit thermometer reading from 20 to 120 degrees fahrenheit. The dial has fine engraving throughout and it is signed E. Dent, Paris London followed by the very low serial number 6037 suggesting an extremely early date of manufacture almost certainly in the 2nd half of the 1840s. The pointer is blue steel and there is an internal brass recording hand adjusted by a raised central brass knob set outside the glass cover. The outer case measures 6 1/2″ in width and 6″ in height. It is made from beautifully patinated golden oak with a sloped front and glass viewing port. The hinged front still has the original lock but the key is missing. The fitted interior retains its original blue velvet lining and has a sliding brass retaining bar to secure the ring stem of the barometer in place. This piece is a rare example. I have never seen another Dent barometer in an upright style case like this one. If preferred, the case could be inverted so that the back becomes the base in which case the look would be like the usual sloping desk model except that the barometer would be upside-down. It is unrestored and in good original condition with some wear to the upper edge of the rear of the oak case and a couple of approximately 2.0cm scratches to the LHS of the glass viewing port. The barometer is in full working condition and readily passes the plastic bag pressure test. The thermometer is fully working wth no air-gaps in the red spirit. A rare and very early addition to any collection of scientific instruments. The item “V. EARLY E. J. DENT No 6037 ANEROID DESK BAROMETER & THERMOMETER IN RARE OAK CASE” is in sale since Friday, June 25, 2021. This item is in the category “Antiques\Science/Medicine\Scientific Instruments”. The seller is “weatherzone25″ and is located in Middlesex.
