This is actually a really good idea. Most fans have really irritating and balky aiming mechanisms. Where can I buy one of these?
Fan in Place of Light Bulb Makes Lamp Produce Breeze
You can turn a desk lamp into a ventilating unit with a recent German invention. It’s a compact fan that screws into any light-bulb socket. The three propeller blades are plastic and the device comes in a variety of colors.
Hi, good site. I buy such ventilator 10 Years befor in a Furnitur-Market (IKEA?)

My god! I saw those for sale only one time ever at Woolworth (when they were still around) in 1885. I was 12 years old and had no money. *sigh* I so much wanted one, I have not seen them eversince then, I have been looking for them too! Please, if anyone has seen them for sale, please tell me where!
