IXO 8" Fan Circa 1930 Here is another fan I know nothing about.  I really like the design and I believe it is really unique for several reasons.  On the stem between the base and the yoke, the black piece you see is actually made of wood.  Also, the motor vent holes really makes it look like a microphone.  And although you cannot really see them, there are two small grease cups within the motor housing.  I also love the looks of the blades and can’t recall another fan blades similar.  As usual, I welcome any info about this fan.
