971)
Diameter:
3050mm
Pitch: 1850mm
Engine: 200hp Benz
Serial No: 19504

We bought several tropen propellers from Germany a
few years ago and this is the last that we have for sale. It is made of
various laminations of mahogany to withstand the extremes (and perhaps
the insects) of the Middle East.

The prop was built for the 200 hp
Benz engine that powered recce aircraft such as the Albatros C-VII, the
DFW and the LVG. Most of these props that we found were stamped
for the LVG C 6 (sic) but this one is unmarked.

The prop is in conserved condition. The original varnish has
been lightly cut back and a new layer of French polish added.
