Well....this is new even to me (and I believe I know quite a few of my competitors)...
I see there is a side marking on the first picture saying something ".... STREAM" can you obtain a better picture on that marking ? That might help understanding the manufacturer

Autostream?

(The bulbous shape looks about right)

No I don't think that one because the pitch setting system is completely different and the blades shape is also different.

I suspected an old model of Luke prop but it doesn't seem at all the same

The stainless models of the Autostream are different from the earlier bronze ones, and I believe the OP's prop to be one of those bronze ones. I had one some twenty years ago so the memory is fuzzy, but looks right and the "...stream" logo matches, too.

Jim

PS It was a pretty good prop, too!

PPS However, I don't see the pitch adjustment stops that were on my prop. They consisted of a pair of bolts that penetrated the gear housing and limited the amount the hub could rotate in both fwd and rev. Stuck out conspicuously and so perhaps this is an even older Autostream???
