          Hi,

          Thank you Bob for your explanation. In France, the beginning price is often largely lower than the lower estimation price, except for auctions where there is very small price variation possibilities ("standard" gold jewels, for example, which sell from their weight).

          @lion65: yes, I was surprised that the German props didn't sell. Perhaps they suffer from cost transport to USA?
          I have discussed of your collection with my "colleagues", but we are not in the way of buying anything else that French ones until our collection (quite completed for the 14-18 era), will include a panel of metalic propellers (fixeed and variable pitch) from the 30's AND more pre-WW1 ones (we have only six brands). The only exception would be a Hamilton in original state with the "banana" decals...

          Regards,

            Hello PM,

            there is only one French propeller left over, a Levasseur for the Dorant AR1 plane from about 1918. Unfortunately I have not the Hamilton propeller...

            Kind regards,
            Gert

              It was the first thing I looked for when I received your list!

              I have bought two (one and half, in fact!) German ones 6 monthes ago, with the hope to have an exchange with someone who has a Hamilton... but I have not still picked up them... It is why I was attentive at the prices of yours... And I am a little disappointed by them!

              About the Levasseur, we have three of them: one "like new" from 1917 (serial 586 for SPAD 13), one in poor state of the same era and one half destroyed but from ~1911 (serial 134 with large blades scimitar shaped and the first Levasseur decals and stamps).

              Regards,
              PM
