Need help with ID on a prop spinner

[Tieleader]

Hey,guys.
I've had this for decades and recently realized the best source to ID it is here! It was paint stripped when I bought it at a flea market and the only markings are the ones pictured. It's an 18" ruler by the way. Any ideas? It has a diameter of 22" and is about 27" high. The hand writing inside is really kind of partial but I think I see a P and N and G . The remaining paint looks Zinc Chromate to me. Thanks for any help!

When I first saw it I first thought of Westland Wyvern

My first thought was post war, like Super Connie-ish.

The spinner from what I can see has a inner front support that helps center the spinner on the four bladed propeller. To me the diameter is too large for a Rotol Propeller, it still could be for one. It could also be for something like a Hamilton Standard DC-7 propeller, but I am just guessing.

It would nit be for a Super Connie as they used they bladed propellers.

It would not be for a Hamilton Standard 54H60 for a C-130, as they are different and have a hole in the front end for cooling of the Hydraulic Oil that operates the propeller.

Wish It had more id stamps or someting similiar...
I vaguely remember something to the effect that seller said it was from a P-51, of course this was to a kid almost 50 years ago. Wishful thinking...?

I immediately thought Armstrong Whitworth AW.660 Argosy

Or perhaps from another A/C fitted with the Rolls Royce Dart

doesn't look like it to me. There's no open spots aft of the blade slots. On mine there doesn't appear to be a way to attach any other parts there.
Thanks for the intell however!

And this is why I leave it to the Experts! Any idea how these "spacers" attach or is part of the hub?

The spacers you are referring to, I know as "Fillets" and the are attached to the rear bulkhead. They are used as an aerodynamic filler to keep air out of the spinner and create drag.
