I have a propellor blade which I think is a genuine spitfire/seafire wood blade and would be very interested if I could hear of its origins.
The Boss numbers are ROCT RA 10127/ORS: Jp 257961 RWO 7? 69
The Blade cover numbers are;
RA. 10270/RT
?
O 6@ 7 ? 67
066 ? 69
7 68
How I got this is an interesting story
Any information here would be most appreciated

A very small hub bearing.
It is a Seafire 47 blade from the contra-rotating two pairs of three.

Let me guess its one of many used for fence posts ?.Sorry its just a guess as its a very common use for them out around Macclesfield until about 25 years ago a number of farms still had them as fence posts and we swapped an awful lot for new posts and the farmer was more than happy !!!!.
