Blower motor or ?

I don't have a 6 v power source. 5V..............but it won't turn. Pretty sure  I believe it is a blower motor. Now I just need some sort of way of determining the application for it via the stamped numbers on it. At a dead end online anywhere. Any info would be a great help. Thanks

This could be a late 40's-early 50's 6 volt motor. Still could be a 6 volt without cloth covered wire. If you have access to a voltmeter, you could connect the leads to the wires and lightly spin the shaft. You should see some output like 1.0-1.5 volts and spinning the shaft the opposite direction should show negative voltage results. Go through all the combinations and the note readings. Likely there is a common, like black and the other leads would be the speeds. The lead pair that yields the highest output would be the high speed leads.
