I found this one at a household auction about 30 years ago.  Always thought it was interesting, but no idea where it came from.

Whats that point weight? Looks like a harpoon...what would it be used for?

[Whip]

I'm assuming it is a fishing arrow, but don't know how it would have been attached to a string.  
Total arrow length including the point is 32", and the point itself is 5 1/2".
It came with a couple of old self bows, one of which had some very cool hand carved antler tips.  It remains the best bargain I have ever had at an auction.

Joe that head looks a bit south american type to me but not possitive maybe send a pic to Wade and he'd know bd

[Jack Guard]

Oh my goodness TRAP.  I am gonna need a minute alone with the pics of those arrows.  

Thanks for posting.

[Bjorn]

Trap, those are the best looking arrows I have seen-very tasteful and elegant.

Here are some charming flight arrows, 1940's; maybe 1930's



Heavily tapered and super aerodynamic.

.

The weights are marked, and the nocks are made of bone-wish they were signed.

Awesome thread.

Bjorn, you'll recognize a few of these arrows since you were their caretaker for a period of time.  Thanks for letting me hold them for a bit.

First is a vintage self-nocked Henry Bitzenburger target arrow.
 
 

Here's a Huch Rich arrow from days gone by.
 

One of my favorites-A early 40s Ben Pearson arrow with a Ben Pearson  barbed 6x6 skeleton ferrule broadhead.
 

Top self-nocked arrow in the next two photos has an early Zwickey broadhead (1939?), Bottom arrow is a Ben Pearson self nocked arrow with a Ben Pearson barbed 6X7 skeleton ferrule broadhead (1938)Thanks Wade.

[frassettor]

I hope these qualify as vintage..Shakespear arrows 55lb spine. Not sure of the year, these were given to me by my father in law.
