I hope someone may be able to assist me .. my late Father had in his possession a cut down woden propeller which I am trying to identify\
It has the following markings, a central hole surrounded by eight small bold holes
On the front it has
GIRRUS M11 - AVIATION OR SIMILAR
D.R.G. NO. Y.648/1
"INVINCIBLE" or similar name
JES 1835 or 1935
Some of the letters are faded but this is the best interpretation I can come up with and hope you can shed some light on this.
My Father did not leave Australia during the war although he did serve in Western Australia.
I do know he had intended in putting a clock into the prop but it has stayed in this form all my life and now my son is interested in finding out some information.
Sadly the prop is cut down so I am sure it has no value but it does have a sentimental value to the family..
Kind regards
