Free: Vintage paper fan (Chinese) (repair (SG4 hitchin) Note: pickup from Hitchin or Buntingford (work). Chinese paper fan. Quite old - about 30 + years old? The paper is still in good condition but the pin holding the bottom bit together has come loose. I’ve threaded a twist tie through it to keep it together but I’m sure someone could fix it if they were good at mending.
