Lang Propeller real or replica?

Shrimpshack · 01-01-2021, 07:08 PM

Picked up this propeller at an auction. I think it is a replica but don't know anything about them. It measures 66 inches long. The printing on the front reads "Lang Propeller NO. 3124 Pitch .955 Dia. 1:677 D8 No. 27.40" Looking for any information I can find. Real or repo? Value? If real any information?

Thanks in advance.

I'd say it's a replica, and a poor one at that.

I don't know if Lang ever produced a propeller that was that short, nor do I think they made any props with two thick laminations like that. Also, the hub drilling is atypical for any Lang propellers that I've ever seen.
