Antique Metal 5 Blade Engine Fan, Yellow, Rust, Steampunk, Industrial Decor

Here’s an actual 5-blade metal fan from sort of motorized vehicle that dates back to at least 1950s, possibly earlier. We found it in an old barn where it had been stashed away for decades. It’s just as we found it with original yellow paint and light surface rust in random places. Aside from putting it back in service on another old old vehicle, this fan has great potential as wall decor, a unique light fixture, or even repurposed as a ceiling fan. How cool would it be to have it in a man cave, cooling the room!! It measures about
18 inches diagonally but differs a bit because of its odd shape depending where the measurements are taken. It is rather heavy, weight over 4 1/2 pounds. Given its color, we think it either originally was on a school bus or a piece of construction equipment. It would look nice displayed with industrial antiques, steampunk paraphernalia, primitives, or a mix of antiques.
