Curtiss prop

[sanger22]

Hello. I am just looking for any opinions on this prop. Rarity. Value. I’m thinking about purchasing it. It’s a Curtis and it is 8 feet 6 inches long. The numbers on the prop are p 91138. 88x59. Op85662p1
It’s shaped like the Curtiss jn4.
Thank you John. I originally posted this in the show and tell area but realized it was probably not the correct place.

It's hard to really tell much from those photos.

I’m sorry, I will download some better ones. These are the only pictures I have at the moment.
Thank you, John

Hopefully better

It's rough but original. I doubt you can verify JN4 usage. If it were me in a position to buy I’d start at around $500, but it might be worth - depending . . .

If you buy it, don't “alter” it.

Thank you I appreciate it

Hi

Whether this is helpful I don’t know but, having looked closely at the photos, the prefix to the number 85662P1 appears to be CP rather than Op (CP standing for Curtiss Propeller) and the diameter and pitch markings appear to be not 88 x 59 but 8’6”x 5’9”, which corresponds with the known dimensions.

Regards

Andy

I appreciate your feedback. I just thought it was a neat looking old prop but he wants quite a bit more than 500 for it so I’m not sure I’m going to make an offer.
Thank you
