Don't recognize the name or style. I'd guess circa 1950s or 1960s.

The distinguishing features of the quiver were borrowed from earlier designs. The diamond shaped perforations with white background was used in many quiver designs, dating back to 1941. The zippered pocket was used for quivers as early as the mid 1930s.

That may have been a Ben Peason line...bd

There are no other marking on the quiver or buckle but the word "PRENTICE" is stamped on the zipper pull.

Indian Archery is my guess.

"Golden Chief Archery" obviously was a company from Duluth, MN. You occasionally find old catlaogues on the bay. Arrows are also traded or sold in forums.
Try searching for "Golden Chief Archery".

I did a search on Golden Chief because I picked up some arrows today that were in a box labeled Golden Chief out of Duluth MN.
 The box said they were manufactured and distributed by Arrowhead Plastics Inc. also in Duluth MN.
To my surprise they were decorated with the somewhat hard to find Black Beauty Broadheads #0218.000, also a Minnesota Product.   :goldtooth:
