I am building a replica of a one room school for our home, and I am on the hunt for a school bell, and one of the real old ceiling fans where the armiture stays still and the windings rotate.

If you run across either let me know. The school bell will not be so tough, but the ceiling fan may be, have not seen one in a long while.

Thanks, Larry

I found two of those but missed the Robbins and Meyers one. It is close to what I want but not reversable electrically.

There are school bells on ebay as well but the one style I want with the rope pulley rather than an arm is $1800! not what I had in mind.

Thanks, Larry
