1970s Kmart brand Lakewood p23 20 inch box fan

This fan is absolutely mint! I couldn't even tell the rear guard was damaged on video. These fans may not be rare but they sure are liked by collectors. Not only for the famous startup sound but also how powerful they are and how well built they are. I always liked the sound of these fans. That blade produces a very soothing sound. H73 would be the date code. This fan was manufactured in August of 1973.
