I am going to post a picture here - so maybe someone can help me figure exactly what propeller I have.
I know it had the "Paragon" Maryland logo because I can see the Maryland part on it. It measure approx. 7 1/2" Lonf and looks the one the Curtiss "Jenny" props you have pictured. It has the brass tip- but they are so coated with years and years of corrosion. Mine seems to smaller than the other one I see on this website. I thought becasue it look so old and dirty that it would be better to have it restored. But then I read a Post that said "Don't restore your Propeller!" Well guess what? But maybe it not so bad that I have a person who knows about wood doing it. I hope.
At least I know better for the next time I find a WW1 Wood Propeller stuffed behind a wall in an old barn, huh? Cassie
