Lot 1044
An interesting mantel Clock made from the boss of an early laminated dark-wood aircraft Propeller with eight mounting bolt holes and stamped to the top ``DRG No OE8101/1, D 9`6``, P 6.40``, JAGUAR IVC, S No B5, 7 32``, mounted with a brushed finish metal clock face with Arabic numerals and later quartz movement. 14`` wide, 8 3/8`` high, 6 3/16`` deep. This originally 9`6`` diameter propeller was used on an Armstrong Siddeley Jaguar IV C engine. (The Jaguar engine was an air cooled 14 cylinder radial aero engine having two banks of seven cylinders, the then new design of engine was first run on the 21st June 1922 and developed 300 hp. The mark IV C was a modified version of the engine developed in 1928, it by that time had been increased in cubic capacity by an increase of the bores to 5 1/2 inches and displaced 24.8 litres, developed 400 hp and consumed around 20 gallons of fuel per hour. In spite of having a reputation for vibrational harshness attributed to the absence of a crankshaft main bearing between the two banks of cylinders, it was, it seems, fitted to 43 different types of aircraft and it was produced in various versions, the last development being the supercharged Jaguar VIII A of 1929. A Flight magazine article of April 8th 1926 fascinatingly refers to an epic flight by Mr. (later Sir) Alan Cobham from London to Cape town and back to London of some 17,000 miles in a de Haviland 50 bi-plane aircraft G-EBFO powered by one of these engines. After dismantling for inspection, the engine proved to be in virtually new condition with infinitesimally small amounts of wear in spite of having travelled through highly inhospitable conditions and large variations in climate.)
