In one photo he is holding the red spinner, and in the other he is holding the souvenir propeller from Nieuport scout 5137. The background of the second photo is clearly the same as that of the first picture posted to this thread which shows Ball holding both the spinner and propeller at the same time. It must have been a busy day in the developer's studio! __________________ "A surprise attack is much more demoralising than any other form, and generally results in the person attacked diving or pulling the machine into such a position that it forms a most satisfactory target for the few seconds necessary to deliver a decisive blow.
