Hi Graceland
Have you tried getting in touch with the Shuttleworth Collection, they might be able to help identify it.

I found an old dressing table made by my Gt Uncle from a propellor and tried to work out what it was. Trouble is, on British propellers, the identity code was stamped or burned around the boss in the middle so it doesn't look as if it's present on this one. If there are any codes though, I've got a list of the drawing numbers which should identify the maker etc.
