Maybe it would be easier if I sent some pictures if you're interested in helping or maybe you can just decipher what I'm talking about from my terrible description. Either way, thank you very much for your time. Hi Derek, Yes, please send me some photos of your fan. You can send me your email address via the CONTACT ME form at the top right of my blog page. I am wondering if your fan could be a Dutch E.M.I. Fan of which many were of the pancake style and very nice fans. Darryl Hudson sells felt wick material.

The friction washer you mentioned is probably the large slightly bent washer between the base and trunnion and used to provide some friction at the joint while allowing the trunnion and motor to rotate on the base. Pancakes are, as you say, very quiet on their slower speeds. I run some of mine on high but using a Variac to adjust the voltage for the slower speeds that I like to run mine on.

This was pleasing to home owners who liked to sleep under the cool breezes of a fan because these fans did not make much noise when running. I found this fan in Knoxville, Tennessee. It ran but had been neglected and was very rusty. It needed much cleaning and called out for fresh paint. I restored this one in 1997. Here you can see the lettering I painted on by hand at the switch.

The 1908 GE catalog lists the pancake for the last time along with the newly introduced 'Big Motor Yoke' design that was entirely new. I am not too familiar with the so-called 1908 pancake but believe it to be a swivel frame style with the 'big ugly' motor which is plainer and uglier than the 1906-7 trunnion design. The 1907 style trunnion model seems to have been carried over into 1908 also.

If you have questions or would like to leave comments, please email me. Check in with me from time to time, I will be making changes and updates periodically. If you have an old electric fan, heater, motor, lamp or other early electric or mechanical item that you would like to sell, please contact Darryl at the email address below.

The early bottles were embossed (raised letters on the glass), then in the 1930s the painted label bottles came along. They are referred to as 'applied labels' and came in either one color, two color, or three color labels. Graphics include people, landscapes and scenery, airplanes, Cowboys or Indians, and cartoon figures. Some bottles just had the name of the drink on the label. I collect bottles with neat graphics such as pretty girls, landscape scenery, and animals.

Around the turn of the century soda pop became popular and there were literally hundreds and hundreds of different flavors by the 1930s. The drink was carbonated and had to have a special bottle to hold in the fizz if the drink was not going to be consumed right away.

The cage is slightly out of whack but could be adjusted the way it looks. One blade will hit the cage but not enough to stop it. I looked and it appears one but on the cage needs to be tighten which will adjust the angle of the cage.

The 1908 model pancakes are scarce, probably due to them being a carryover model or to clear old stock from 1907 until the newly designed 'Big Motor Yoke' models were made more available. A rear view that is hard to love. 'Big Ugly' is a name that suits these last swivel mount pancakes. Looking behind the cage badge you will see the brass disc used for the past few years which is held in place by the small crimps around the outside of the rear of the badge. Prior to the 1906 models the back of the cage badge was open exposing the eight 'S' wires. The swivel frame model had an extra piece added into the neck of the base to take up the space that would be used by the trunnion on those models. Most GE pancakes from 1904 and later were of the trunnion frame style.
