Description
Up for auction is a beautiful Herter's Perfection Mag recurve. LH, 60#, 62", Serial # M-620472001. Even though it's amo 62", the amount of recurve allows for a 56" string (pictured). Usually they are 3-4" less than amo bow length.A collector's quality bow. Straight limbs, good tips, no scratches or stress cracks in limbs. Three small areas of finish erosion on riser, probably from getting bumped long ago. Looks like a very light Brazilian Rosewood, and with the mass of the riser it seems to be from 1967-74. Big caps faded after that. Beautiful coffee glass backing and black glass facing.
It's lefty. I have a few more lefties I'll post eventually.
If you plan to shoot this you better be strong. Sixty pounds with a lot of limb preload. If you're getting it for a girlfriend, also start a coed softball team, start a lot of bar fights when she's around to protect you, and otherwise do what she says.
To see other nice vintage stuff and many bows over the next year, save me as a seller, and join FB 'Everything Traditional' where some bows go to auction.
