I found an absolutely lovely drawing of the fans' stand during the International Exposition in Paris in 1867, it is inside an Italian publication: "L' Esposizione Universale del 1867 illustrata: pubblicazione internazionale autorizzata dalla commissione imperiale dell'esposizione", I hope that this link will work for you:
Ciao,

The fan is coming along fabulously Ninetta. I like the way the different rows face in different directions yet create a uniform whole.
