That stamped logo looked familiar. A box fan that came from my grandparent's house has a Vernco logo. I found a couple of short articles about Vernco in Columbus, Indiana.

Built in 1935, the industrial facility originally housed the V.E. Sprouse Co., an Indianapolis-based firm that made humidifiers, fans, electric motors and auto parts. It wasn’t until 1953 that the business changed its name to Vernco Corp.
