..erm, apart for the fact that is not painted black as usual (which in theory could mean the original colour could have been sanded off), it's a bit tiny weeny for a Spit propeller (the 2 bladed Watts was around 10ft), it's not a fixed pitch propeller and there's a bogus spinner on it, it's a bargain!! lol

I agree something doesn't look right......I expect the varification doc to be hand writen in crayon.

seller is a bit too weary of 'know it alls' and 'anoraks' as stated in his listing, he doth protest too much me thinks.

I still don't believe it. Look at how big a real Mk.I Spit prop looks in comparison to that one. Big difference in my eyes. Also the shape seems to be a bit different?

the only two-bladed props on Spits were fixed pitch AFAIK, and surely not that tiny in diameter!
Frankly the "certificate" she mentions is just a piece of typewritten paper, and could well be a fake. I'm not doubting she might be in good faith, but maybe she's been ripped off herself.. following the auction, let's see where this goes..
