Philco "Ventilator" window fan

Well, I pulled the trigger on the Philco Ventilator today. I returned the the thrift store where I saw it a few days ago and it was still there. I went to get it and an older gentleman got there before me and was giving it a good look-over. I figured that if he bought it that would be providential and I'd save 90 bucks! He didn't. Needs a good cleaning and a cord replacement.

Interesting that with the wealth of information on the net, I do not find much on these. I think it's safe to say that they are rather rare. I understand the hesitation of anyone biting on my request for an opinion as to what it's worth. I figure I may not have gotten a great deal, but I didn't really lose anything on the investment either.

I'm planning to post some pics of my nominal collection, including this Philco fan, soon.
