c. 1950s; Westinghouse Electric Corp. - Bloomfield, NJ
Vintage Westinghouse “Mobilaire” floor fan exhibiting Streamline Moderne and Machine Age industrial styling. Its circular aluminum housing features concentric aerodynamic rings, a woven-metal safety grille, integrated carrying handle, and original Westinghouse badges. Deeply pitched Micarta composite blades were designed to move a large volume of air while resisting corrosion. The fan rests on a height-adjustable tubular-metal frame with looped feet, rubber wheels, and a central footrest. Please note that its adjustable height was discovered after photography and is not represented in the photographs.
Founded by George Westinghouse in 1886, Westinghouse Electric became one of America’s foremost electrical manufacturers, producing everything from power-generation equipment to household appliances and ventilation products.
