Found this gem at my local goodwill outlet for 3 bucks, I couldn’t find any info or other fans like this one so I presume not many were made, this one is not in good cosmetic shape but runs flawlessly, the knob is not original but it fits fine. The grille with the badge was originally on the other side however based on where the cord comes out and how the switch is more towards the motor side and the fact it moves a bit more air when blowing towards the motor, I assume this grille goes here but I could be wrong. if anyone has this model, please comment a link so I can see it, I otherwise don’t have a lot of info about this fan. Update: I replaced the fucked up grilled with painted egg crate grilles and now it looks really nice.

Thats a rebranded Kel Air fan. Very cool find! You dont see the Westinghouse ones much.

ToryTheFanMan thanks for the info, I looked it up to see what they normally look like although I couldn’t find the reversible model like mine. I would be kicking myself had I not gotten this.

Nice find. I have a Westinghouse similar to that but mine is very basic, no venturi ring, metal grilles and it's a 2 speed with push button on top. Mine has the same blade as yours but the frame and grilles are just like a Hunter. I think the motor in mine and yours is a Marco. These fans were made after Westinghouse had mostly stopped making fans themselves and just were using other parts. You might have seen the green and white Westinghouse fans that had the LivelyAire blade but the motor and base were from Knapp Monarch. Plus they had a Westinghouse window fan that used this plastic blade but a Westinghouse frame.
