1930s Floor Standing Airplane Fan

About the Item

You may never see another early fan like this. Its a first for me. The plane sits on a sturdy Brass and cast iron articulating base. The top joint is a locking ball that will allow you to pose the airplane in any direction. The body of the aircraft is cast aluminum with steel wings. There is a light that is inside that glows through the windows. The original fan works well and the motor is strong. This is a unique and rare object with personality.

    Located in Peekskill, NY
    This is a large delicate tin model made around the same time the real Tin Goose was flying. The wingspan is an impressive 40 inches. The wheels are rubber and the 4 part windshield is glass. I'm surprised the model survived in such nice and complete condition for about 90 years. We had a custom display stand made for it that brings it to another level. Between 1926 and 1933 some 200 Trimotors were built in Ford's own factory. Corrugated metal on great thick monoplane wings was a German development, used in Junker JU-52 planes that were flying the Berlin-Rome-London route. Trimotors were flown by airlines, oil companies and wealthy individuals. The Ford Trimotor...
