Does your hobby attract many "fans" ?

Pretty cool collection. As long as you don't collect chainsaws we're cool. How long have you been collecting?

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

I think you're all on a slippery slope towards being in a little A&E shoe I hate to love - Hoarders!!

You collect nothing? C'mon.

I'd really like one with brass blades. But they are hard to find. The sound the old fans make is pleasing and relaxing. Very different from modern fans.

this is the place to find nothing but late 1800s-1960s fans from a-z
Antique Fan Collectors Association

i been collecting them since 2004

Nice. It's pretty cool being able to collect things you like. I collect old military gear. I don't have that much yet, but I get pieces here and there.

i agree...

that fan site also has a forum too,feel free to join,it's free,they would like to see your fan you got as well

Erm no, and not a fan of something like ceiling fans either and too bad they're from the 80's!!!! When I was a kid growing up in Canada I collected hockey cards like every other kid - opee-chee? I do have an aunt that was way into Beanie Babies back in the day and spent large $$$$ and now they ain't worth ****e.

If the OP is a dude his wife must be pissed! I'd be but to each they're own and carry on with the collecting and I'll keep my eyes out for stylish fans with brass accents.

This thread is fan-tastic.

I think he's fan-natical


I have over 300 shot glasses in storage somewhere. All packed in the old wood soft drink carriers.

You live in that mess?????

As an electrician this kind of crap makes me ill. That wiring is so special.

How hot does it get in "United States" (where's that?) that means you need that many fans in your room at once? I hope you've, out of curiosity, turned them all on at once at some point, just to see the temperature difference. Props to you for introducing me to a hobby and dedicated forum that I'd never imagined existing.

Bitter Jeweler, I ain't normally no fan of no fan, but of your fan, I am a fan.

... too far.
