Title: Ben Pearson wood bows and logo Identification's
Post by: Cody Roiter on October 14, 2009, 05:01:00 PM

Hello Guys, I would like to see some photo's of Ben Pearson wood bows and there logo's..         I am looking for some of the first bows made by Pearson Archery up to late the 1940's.. I am also looking for info on the bamboo bow they made for Howard Hill at the time.. Any wood bows and or logo's would be a great help.. As I have a few bows made by Pearson but there are no names and or date's they where made..


All the best,

Cody

Cody - I'm not a Ben Pearson bow collector but have a couple of his early wooden bows. The earliest Ben Pearson logo on a bow dates to the very late 1930s, it has a simple water transfer decal that says Ben Pearson in all cap black letters .22" tall with gold outline and a distinctive gold arrow through the name. Overall length is just over one inch.
