Title: These Broadheads?
Post by: monterey on January 14, 2010, 03:10:00 PM
Here are a couple of photos of broadheads that my grandson came into at a yard sale.  Have seen many of the old timey heads but this one is not familiar.  Any ideas on what it is.  Any collector value?  I'm not a collector, but would not want to let them end up in the trash if somebody sees a value in them.

Looks to be a Fleetwood king of the forest 1947 vintage, not alot of value unless it weighs 200 grains,most were 125 grains and are common, but the 200 grain heads were rare and bring more money from collectors.

Ron, these are not 200 for sure.  They don't seem to have ever been sharpened.  At least not the bleeders.

Thanks for the info.
