All I could get is a clickable thumbnail. It works, and shows the album of pictures. Can't figure out the full pic yet.

I think what you have is an RH-200,  1959 or 60 Shakespeare recurve.  The riser seems the same except it's not as pronounced on the Shakespeare.
Maybe a prototype.  I'll check some more.

Shleprock, if you post these pics over in the History/Collecting the guru's over there will have her figured out in a jiffy. Not that George can't, just that there's more of the collector types hanging out over there. I can post the pics over there for you if you want. Just start a thread.

I will try putting it over there. If I can't get it I will take you up on that offer.

Yep...good idea cause I'm not sure; that dip in the riser is more pronounced than the Shakespeares that are in the catalogs.
