The Worshipful Company of Fanmakers received its charter on 19 April 1709 and was formed to protect English fanmakers from an influx of immigrant French fanmakers. The modern company gives prizes for fan design and supports research in fan engineering and aeronautical design.

The records of the Company were deposited with the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library in 1984, 1985 and 1989. The Manuscripts Section merged with London Metropolitan Archives in 2008. The records were catalogued by various members of staff over many years.
