Jim,

Sorry to say but that is definitely a fake, reproduction fan.

Besides the poor image quality, a couple of giveaways are:

1) The stick should be one uniform length and a bit narrower

2) The real fan for a fan sticks are notched and the fan sits inside the notch of the wood, the stick doesn't go through the fan itself as yours does.

3) I would bet that the back of your fan is likely blank backed as most reproductions are. The back should have a baseball pattern on it.

I will post a couple of images of good fans in the thread a bit later when I am able.

Regards,

Scott
