"Greatfully Grey 1980s Mistral 30cm Oscillating Desk Fan Model MOF30 Hey Everyone Here's a 1980s Mistral MOF30 With its original box the MOF series by Mistral is the earliest example of these plastic portable fan variety. Surprisingly I managed to score a 30cm example with the original box I nearly got a 9" one too but that one sold before I even saw it which was a real kick in the knee as I like the 9" variety. None the less I still have which is an uncommon example. These retailed for $54.95 new. I think it's safe to say the box has definitely seen better days but it's still here with us"
