Help Identifying Sensenich Model 85LY-57

[gfhenry]

I just purchased this prop on Ebay. The hub markings are MODEL 85LY-57 ~ SER B-1010 ~ HP 185 ~ RPM 2550 ~ SENSENICH. Can anyone tell me the years and types of aircraft that used this propeller. It has Latitz decals. Thanks for any help.

This is under the Sensenich section of this website.

I just purchased a prop off a Stinson 10A, I think but I am not sure the L 5 is the military version of the 10A. I think most of these planes where made in the 40's.

This website has some pictures of the Stinson L5.

ehehehe I was dealing with the owner for the shipping solution and you bought it before
I think you got a really nice exemplar with a beautiful age patina! I'd like to see some pics once you get it if you don't mind

Cheers!
