I have an old recurve bow that my father bought back in the late 1960s. Its stamped 62" 40# the only other marking is an inked "CAT. #260". I think it was purchased from either Sears & Roebuck or Montgomery Wards. Anybody have any idea who would have manufactured it.
Thanks.

I hope the image link works, first time I ever tried it.
I'd post this in the History Collecting Forum too, lots more potential to get a correct answer there.
It looks quite a bit like my old Ben Pearson Colt from the early 60's.
Ben Pearson used "Cat #" on their bows. They made bows for many retailers, including S&R and Monkey Wards. I agree with Hit-or Miss.
