Sensenich Prop ID

[RJE]

Hello! Your help is appreciated.
I recently acquired a 69 inch sensenich prop with the following
numbers:
DES 69J
Serial 11267
HP 40
RPM 2575

I gifted this prop to my pilot buddy and he was wondering what year it might be and the type of aircraft it may have been on.

Thanks for any info you may have--This is a great site!

There are 4 aircraft listed here that used that model. There's no way to tell which one, though.

It was produced between 1932 and 1942, after which a letter would have been included in the serial number.

Big time thanks--I see that this info is easily available on this site--I have forwarded the info to the recipient and look forward to
continuing my education for all things-- propellers. These are works of art..I think.

I agree. Look what came in the "mail" today via FedEX, courtesy of Bob Gardner's kind holding on to some of them for the past 5 years after I purchased them. I finally bit the bullet and just had Bob ship them to the U.S. from England.

They're all WW1 vintage, and certainly demonstrate some of the variety of designs and construction.

Dave,
Beauties, all.
Diversity is one of the attractive elements of these things.
Thanks again for your direction. Much appreciated
