Philco "Ventilator" window fan
#2

Hi

Have you looked here?

I used to own one of these units. Wish I had kept it, mine was in excellent, working condition.

I do not know exactly when they were introduced, but as they use 1937-38 concentric tuning knobs for two of the three controls they probably date from around 1939-40, given Philco's divestiture into other appliance fields beginning in June 1938 at the start of the 1939 model year.
