Propeller Mascot

[Bob Bidonde]

Now I know why I cannot find a radial engine mascot. Brad has them all! Nice collection Brad. I am envious.

Bratton's was one of the source of this item for many years. But due to declining demand and the number required for manufacturing it just became unprofitable to produce any longer.

This is the one I have on my coupe

If anyone has a set of plans on how to make 1 of those I have a lathe and a mill I could potentially make some.

Yes, Brad,
You obviously have many very beautiful and interesting collections.

For some inspiration, here is an interesting NOS radial engine mascot kit that was made by Cunningham Products Corporation (assembly required). It has a light in the back of the radial engine and the propeller has slots in the center housing of the propeller to let the light shine through to the front of the propeller hub.

The radial engine part and the propeller are unfortunately made out of some type of fragile pot metal so would most likely crumble apart if assembled.

That pot metal does look quite fragile time has definitely taken its toll with it.
