Lately I been adopting some bows that have blemished beauty, like this 1954 Mamba Sharpshooter that got a deep gouge in the inside curve of the grip during production, probably from the edge of a sanding belt during shaping, and an unknown employee snatched it out of the trash barrel, filled the gouge. I found it 65 years later, no weight stamp, decal or serial number but a nice 66" shooter from when Howatt only offered 3 models. I think the bottle-opener shelf was not factory-issue. ;)
