this recurve bow was made in 1937 by bill folberth outta cleveland ohio. he was ahead of his time according to many traditional bowyers today.
he made the first aluminum arrows and held the first patent for laminated recurves in 1933.
its a lovely bow, doesnt state weight but i would guess around 55#
there is a fine crack at one tip, i tried to show in pix. interesting as bows rarely if ever break at tip. shld be an easy glue-up but i have left it be for now.
there is no string with this bow
