Recreated
for
today
by
Hunter
who
originally
created
it
in
1886
A
little
over
100
years
ago
in
1886,
a
spirited
father
and
son
team
John
and
James
Hunter
launched
a
unique
little
business
that
was
destined
to
become
a
legend.
It
was
the
time
in
American
history
when
Geronimo
surrendered,
Grover
Cleveland
was
President,
and
Admiral
Peary
set
out
to
discover
the
North
Pole.
John
and
his
son
started
selling
a
rather
unusual
collection
of
products
including
the
now
famous
L.C.
Smith
shotgun.
They
also
manufactured
an
odd
-looking
contraption
. . .
a
ceiling
fan!
The
very
first
fan
was
powered
by
water
pressure
and
a
series
of
belts
and
pulleys.
But
soon
after,
the
Hunter
Fan
and
Motor
Company
unveiled
to
the
world
the
first
electrically
powered
ceiling
fan
.
.
one
of
the
first
products
of
any
kind
to
be
powered
by
electricity!
