Hartzell 72" AAF 43K10107

[Larryh86GT]

This good looking 72" propeller is stamped Hartzell AAF Design 43K10107 Ser No 61958. It will display very nicely I think. WW2 era surplus? Value?
Thanks.

The "43" prefix indicates the date of a military contract under which it was manufactured, so it's almost certainly a surplus item, originally manufactured for either a Piper or Aeronca with a 65 HP engine. It doesn't have decals and looks like it's been "restored", so at best I would estimate its value at perhaps a few hundred dollars, although I wouldn't personally pay that much for it.
