This is the resin P-51 Mustang Aeroproducts 4-Blade Propeller & Spinner from Ultracast.  The Aeroproducts spinner is the overall same shape as the Hamilton Standard spinners, however the differences are the shape of the propeller opening hole and the location of a fastener on either side of these holes. These fasteners are absent on the Hamilton Standard spinners. This information was verified from period photos and also the "P-51D/K Erection and Maintenance Manual".
