I picked up a prop fairly cheap and would like some help identifiying it
It appears old and is not in airworthyness condition. Wooden with metal leading edges and on the tips. Measures 66 inchs high. It has 6 mounting holes 1/2 in in diameter each. The bore (center hole) measures 2.6 inches, while the the outside diameter of the mounting hole measures 6 inches. there is a steel 6 inch mounting plate 1/2 inch thick that fits on the front No decals left on it. It has remnants of at least 2 paint jobs over the wood. can't tell what type of wood it is. No other markings on it, It was a reject from a transportation museum that has a fairly significant collection of world war 1 aircraft. I was told it was for a german aircraft but nothing to support that. Any ideas would be appreciated. Have another prop I would like to identify as well but would like to start with this.
Thanks D Orcutt
