Classic Howatt RECURVE BOW, Hi Speed, 42#@28 inches, 54 inch

For Sale:  High end collectible archery bow appears to be in excellent shape with no issues but since I did not get a string with it can't test it out.  

No chips or cracks are visible.  Minor dings and finish wear only.  No delaminating.  Marked 42#@28" and looks like H5V8565-54".   When I found this I thought it was a newer bow but some research indicates it was probably made in around the 1960's.   There is a small piece of some kind of animal skin near the ledge- shows some wear.  The is a small piece of something attached to the bow at the arrow rest.  If you are local and can bring a string and a bow stringer you are welcome to come try this out- otherwise have to sell as-is.   I read on the web that you can never tell if a vintage bow is good until you string it up and draw.
