A superb British hardwood propeller, crafted in the mid-1930s and featuring a very unusual polished black-lacquer finish. The blades have copper leading edges and a decorative polished aluminium spinner is mounted to the central boss.

Original identification marks to the side of the central boss show this design paired seamlessly to either the De Havilland Gipsy III or Gipsy Major engine.

The Gipsy III was created by the English aircraft designer Major Frank Halford. Putting out 120BHP, a total of 611 were produced and it was used in several important British aircraft such as the the de Havilland DH.80 Puss Moth and the de Havilland DH.82 Tiger Moth.

The inverted cylinders offered pilots a superior view and reduced aerodynamic drag.

Dimensions: 193 cm/76 inches (length) x 22.5 cm/8¾ inches (width) x 20.5 cm/8 inches (thick).
