[ERIC HUNT]

New user to forum, please be patient with my computer skills. I have just aquired a Paragon, baltimore,Md. prop. 8'8", 8 hole recessed hub flange,marked 8.8X5.90, P.P.162 L.H. Type HS1, with copper tips. Please help if you have any info on this old prop. Can try and post pics if needed. Thanks, Eric

It's half of a 4 blade combination that was used on the Curtiss HS1 flying boat. The two halves locked together at the notch to make a 4 blade combination.
