Museum of the American Fan Collectors I was curious enough about this attraction to check it out even though I've never considered myself a collector of fans. What a pleasant surprise! With very professional and hospitable staff (it's actually a factory also) greeting me, I felt as though I had stepped back in time.... memories of days gone by and forgotten places. [K. L. Johnson, 06/08/2006][RA: The museum moved to Zionsville, Indiana, and reopened -- to the delight of fan collectors everywhere --in 2009.]
Museum of the American Fan Collectors As a lifelong Kansas resident, I was surprised to come across a flyer for the Museum of the American Fan Collectors ("the most comprehensive collection of air moving devices in the world"). The collection is said to house "over 350 fans... including many rare and one-of-a-kind items, the oldest dating back to the mid-1800's." I find this as rather ironic, as the town of Andover was hit by a devastating tornado in the early 90s. While I haven't yet stopped at the museum, it sounds like it would be pretty cool to see.
