  • Need help in identifying wooden prop.

    mahogany propeller, approx 6feet overall, covered in calico,metal sheathing at leading edges. Eight bolt holes in hub. Two small brass plaques; plaque 1 inscribed, DRG No Y 759/11.Lynx IV Mod. D8.25 P5.48. Plaque 2 inscribed, Sep 1937. C12/53. 53235.
    To date I have discovered only that the Lynx Iv was seven cyl.radial by Armstrong Siddeley and fitted to numerous British aircraft. I cannot find any lead to the manufacturer of this prop. its history or why it is covered in calico.
