Possible Prop Purchase

[Bobnorth]

Can anyone identify this Prop which I have the option to buy shortly.

Apparently, there are no definite Marks on it, but I have requested more Pics.

Hi,

The shape look like a French Levasseur prop. If so, it have to be markings on each rounded side of the hub.

Agreed. It certainly looks like the Levasseur "profile", and the stampings should be there if it completed the manufacturing process and final inspection.

It looks as if it may have been refinished at some point. Many (?most) Levasseur props were actually painted. Also, several British manufacturers made propellers using the Levasseur design, such as this one for a SPAD VII.

It certainly looks like an "early" design (WW1 era), so I move your post into that category.
