Those heads are described in
'Broadheads 1871-`1971'. I can fax that page to you if you want.

There is one head that is under 2 1/2 inches long-it is very rare. The bigger heads were more widely used but still fairly rare today.
I saw one of the bigger versions listed on the unmentionable auction board recently-don't know what it went for.

2.37 in. is the length of the one that is really quite rare. The ones that are about 2.75" are a little more common but still not something you run across regularly.
Those are a very good find in either length.
