Fan arrived yesterday and it’s either a reproduction or an original piece that was never used and taken home and saved due to the graphics. Either way I didn’t pay over $12 with shipping.
Here’s some photos. [attachment=2:30hverdo]7B729EC1-49DD-420D-B673-2F4D2C41E802.jpeg[/attachment:30hverdo][attachment=1:30hverdo]5E66609B-C47B-4F6A-B602-01ED41E971A8.jpeg[/attachment:30hverdo][attachment=0:30hverdo]6745633E-C61F-42B9-945E-A74B835383BB.jpeg[/attachment:30hverdo]
As to it’s purpose it’s an advertising piece and wasn’t intended for train use. When these advertising fans were no homes and few businesses had air conditioning. So advertising an air conditioned train with something to keep you cool was a natural fit.
