Hrothgar:
Craig, here is one sight that has some close-ups, looks like the one or 2 definitive pics were taken in later years.

Yes it does, funny he is such a well known person I would have thought someone who knew everything about him would have popped up and could give us chapter and verse on his bows.

sailordad:
well since youve first started this thred i managed to dig out a thumb drive with some pics on it that i took at the POPE AND YOUNG ARCHERY MUSEUM
this museum has original bows from all the greats,pope and young(obvioulsy),hill,st charles,bear

here is a pic i found with a couple of HH bows
on the one you can clearley see a shelf



i dont know how to enlarge it to make it better
however when i zoom in on the pic,you can clearly see his signature on that bow

CraigMBeckett:
sailordad ,

Thanks for the photo, as you say you can clearly see the shelf. Tried blowing it up but lost definition, does the bow have a date on it?

Craig.

sailordad:
no i dont see a date on it
when i get time i will sit down and go thru all the pics on my thumb drive and see what else i can come up with
i know some one had asked about raw hide quivers,i also have a nice pic of one that was made by POPE(i believe)
if you want i can give you the phone number to the museum,i am sure the
proprietor would love to share any ifo he has(hes very knowledgable on the greats  ;) )
