Manuals & Serial Numbers Q: I need an owners and service manual for my Airstream. Where can I get one? A: The first owners manuals were published in 1964. Prior to that, the owner received a brown envelope containing parts lists and other helpful information on the accessories in his trailer. A service manual with instructions for performing service operations did not exist until 1972. You can get photocopies of owners manual (1964+) and service manuals (1972-1986) from: Helen Davis Secretarial Services PO Box 484 Sidney, OH 45365 (937)492-8885 Prices are about $33 and $70 respectively.

After 1986 the Owners Manuals included available service information. Q: How do I decipher the serial number on my trailer to determine the year made? A: Serial numbers weren’t standardized until the mid 1960’s. I’ve captured these early formats in the info under each model type in the.
For late model trailers: 1969 to 1980 Digit 1 = I – International; L – Land Yacht; E – Excella Digit 2&3 = Length Digit 4 = A – Center bath twin beds B – Center bath double bed D – Rear Bath double bed T – Rear bath twin Digit 5 = Model year Digit 6 = J – Jackson Center, OH S – Cerritos, CA V – Versailles, OH (Argosy) Digit 7-10 = Sequential serial number -3 Digits 1966-1969, 4 digits 1970+ Q: How are the new (1981+) serial numbers structured? A: They followed the new VIN laws, and were structured to DOT and SAE specs. See this explanation. Q: The first digit on my serial number plates looks like a 1, not an I, is my trailer differEnt? A: From 1969 to 1980, the type face on the serial number plates changed to a san-serif modern style, and the new “I” is just a simple vertical straight line – same as the number”1″, so you can’t whether its an “I” or a “1” by looking at it. But since the other option levels for 1969 to 1980 use letters, E for Excella and L for Land Yacht, it’s assumed it is the letter “I” for International, not a “1”. Q: When did the airstream model year start?
A: In September of the prior year. For example, a trailer made in October of 1958 is a 1959 trailer.
Offline So I ran into -literally this old GE fan at a garage sale. Thought it was kinda interesting (this is my first old fan). Anyway I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some history of this particular fan.

It looks like it has 3 speeds and may oscillate. Alternating Current Fan Motor Pat No. 1038935 Cat 7-8777 Type A0 Form R9 Volts 110 Cycles 60 General Electric Co., USA Attached Image (viewed 10746 times): Posted: Sun Jul 24th, 2011 06:00 pm Guest Joined: Thu Aug 2nd, 2007 Location:, Status.
Like many of us here, I have a thing for old mechanical devices. I was wandering the aisles of a local antique (aka junk) store.
I found these in a dark corner. This is a brass desk fan. Based on the model number, cage design and base design, it was built between 1903 and 1907. It's a three speed non-oscillating fan. The thing is a pig! It weighs in at 23#. Other than a replacement cord, it's all original and works perfectly.

And this is a mid 1930's to early 1940's GE Vortalex oscillating pedestal fan. Not quite as rare as the desk fan but still a great example of the early 'quiet fans'. Perfect operating condition with the exception of the 'doohickey' that keeps the oscillating from going 360.

Not mine, net-pic. Does not matter what you are into, there's a club for it. I stumbled on this one looking for a source for cloth-wrapped wire to replace an old power cord. 'What kind of club is that?' It's a fan club. 'So who's fan club is it?' I don't know who's club it is.
I'm sure it is run by someone. 'I wasn't asking who runs the club, I just wanted to know who you were a fan of.' It's not a Who, it's a What. For example; I like Emerson. 'So it's the Emerson Fan Club?' No, we like all fans, not just Emerson.
'It's a club, for fans of fans?' 'So you're fans of people who belong to fan clubs??' No, we ARE a fan club.
