Nute,
The broadhead you described was made by Larry Becker and Bob Casperson. They made a few different models and I believe the one you're describing is the production model, tapered ferrule broadhead. It was first made in 1950. It weighs approx 135gr, 2.6" long and has a stamping on it of "Caspersen Die Co. Madison Wis". Hope this helps.
Tony

Here's the picture. Tony was right on top of this. Of course, he gets up earlier in the morning!
