What's Wrong with this Picture?
 

Of all the items in the museum, this one really stood out for me.  This one bladed prop was actually developed and is a real study in complicating a simple concept.  It actually has a variable mass inside the propeller that slides to and from the hub as the RPM changes to keep the dynamic balance.  I never did figure out what the advantage of a single bladed prop would be but someone a whole lot smarter than I must have had a reason.
