Hate to be a nit picker, but it looks like it says "Signal" rather than "Single".

Definitely looks like a Pearson to me Looks like a fun bow. Post this and the pic over on the Trad History and Collecting forum and you'll likely learn more about the bow.

There is a lengthy Refinishing 101 Thread posted at the top of that forum to help with your refinish.

Old bows are cool. Congrats

I think it says SIGNAL, So may change your search.

.......and after fully reading this thread, it seems I am not the only one to notice that. [banghead] ummmm, maybe it's a Pearson... Goodnight now.

Yep it is a Pearson Signal Star. Got one on the rack. Then they made it with an all Phenolic plastic looking riser.

That is "Signal" printed on the limb, not "single". Maybe that will help somebody ID it. (As others noted while I was typing) [Smile]
