hello all,I came across this old bow and know very little about it. limb says browning challenge. no date to help place this bow or its history. in the case is 2 unused strings in shipping tubes, no dates on them either. best guess from local archery shop is late 50's or early 60's. but only a guess. any info would really be appreciated. here are some pixs of it showing all markings. this is a really neat old bow just want to place it somewhere in time.

Sure looks like a mid-sixties bow! Can you show us the shelf area? I am interested in who made this for Browning, and all the other stuff too. Congrats on your find.

Beautiful bow. Obviously a factory defect, though, the shelf's on the wrong side!
