1244 RH displaying for a friend

I have B2198; purchased from the original owner.
It is RH with stabiliser bushing, quiver inserts and what looks to be a steel arrow plate (adjustable??). It also had a sprung elevated rest, which I have removed.
It came with 2 sets of white tipped limbs and what may be the original case: Black with zipper and 2 handles with a straight-backed bear emblem.

For sure this is a mighty collection of TDs!

Is there any record of B-1966 being produced?
If so, would it be known here who may own it?
I currently have A-1966 and I am fond of this #.

I have in the past encountered A,B and C risers having the same serial #
ie......... I onced owned A-1760 and sold it to a fellow collector who owned B-1760 who then knew the whereabouts of C-1760. Interesting.

Lot's of fun chasing them down, isn't it!

I would be very interested in finding her.
Thanks in advance.......Philip

Bowdoc

I had a B that was cut for center shot at Bear Archery that I bought from a guy back in the 70s, I gave $75 for bow and 60lb limbs, sold it for $350 a few months later, no idea on serial number that long ago wish i had, might might been the same bow.

not kidding no no kidding I got the B a few weeks ago I've now shot the new well old new B 1970 plenty of times.If it rains I shot in the house down the hall or if the wife is gone I shot in the front room on my coffee break.I've used #1 limbs on it that are 46# and #1 53# plus a set of #2 48# and I'am gonna get me a set of 55# #1's white tippers somewhere somehow before hunting season for sure.This one is by far one of the if not the best shooting B handle I've ever shot I love it bd
