Offered in this lot is a vintage "Zero" electric desk/table fan made by McGraw -Edison Co.• Bersted Manufacturing Division in Boonville, Missouri, under the name ZERO. The fan is a cool teal blue on the base with silver blades and a red logo disk in the center of the guard. The fan shows signs of rust on the base. The cord shows no damage, fraying, or breaks. It has a tilt option, as seen in pictures, without oscillation. It has no on/off switch, you just plug it in. It measures 10 1/4" tall. The base is 6 1/4" x 4 1/2". The fan cage is 9" in diameter. Power goes to the fan, but blades are not turning. This is a cool midcentury industrial chic piece great for small spaces, office, or kitchen.
