We just bought this beautiful wood propeller from the daughter of a collector who had gathered up a lot of antique military items while he worked for the Hill Air Force Museum in Ogden Ut. He recently passed away & we lucked out and got this very nice old 1930s propeller from his Collection to add to the aaaLakeside Storage Collection and Free Museum. We are thrilled with this one as it looks like new except for a couple of small dings on the brass leading edge. All we need now is the plane that it went on! Got one you wanna sell us?
Sensenich Brothers are marked with serial number that will identify the aircraft.
Be advised, SB also made wood props for air boats-- the hub on yours looks different from what I usually see in a/c props.
Here is my "go to" web site for wood props. It will ID your prop (or any old a/c propeller):

Yeah, lot of measures & marking not shown. I ran the prop shop for a Piper dealer for awhile. Just guessing from pix's with no other info., I would guess for about a 55 hp or + & maybe a Champ, Cub etc..
We only bought the prop for display as it is in such beautiful condition & even tho we know what planes it could have been used on, it's irrelevant to us. The seller reports it was used for a Piper JE4, porterfield 75C, sky ranger 175. And it is a 70D 44 prop. Not sure of the actual value?
