OK then. Quiz time. I took this photo of a very rare historical artifact this morning only a short distance form where I live. It's possibly the only surviving example of its kind in the world. Can anybody hazard a guess as to what it belonged to?



Clue: It relates to a recent topic in this forum. Woodlouse is not allowed to take part as he knows the answer.

Judging by the clue, I think I know what it is.


So i'll shut up.


For once...

Ooooooohh ooohh! I know! I know!!!

Good try but it's a tad bigger than that & Spitfire props are not exactly rare.  

Another clue: At a rough guess the ceiling of the room it's in is about 8 feet high.

It's a coat hanger.

I think I know it but I'll wait for other people to guess first.

Don't be shy or we'll be here until Christmas.

It's aaaa... it's aaa... it's a Brabazon prop??!

I knew that.

Hurrah I hope so. That was I was thinking...

Hooray..........! Give the man a coconut.

How did you guess that?

Oops. Here's another shot.

An opener for gigantic letters?




Sorry, I haven't a clue, other than a prop-blade.

Theis was correct. It's a blade from a Bristol Brabazon propeller. This one.
