Title: 1963 Bear Arrow Box ?
Post by: Mike Shaw on November 05, 2011, 09:04:00 PM
I'm working on a project and need to know what arrow box Bear Archery used in 1963. Was it the green and black box or the the older Gray and green Box with the arrow on the side? Both boxes Read "for those who want the finest"... Thanks in advance, Mike

Nick, I will keep you up to date on my project. I just can't believe the 63 catalog doesn't show the arrow box for that year.

Mike I think zip codes started in 1963 around the middel of the year. That might help with which box it is.

Thanks Larry, No Zip codes or address on either box.
I'm leaning toward the older style box with the arrow on the side. Just a guess.

Don, I'm making a 1963 Bear archery display and I want all the period correct items. Someone out there must know what Arrow box was used in '63. I have researched it everywhere and nothing.
