This 20X30 print is on the same stock as the Bear Archery ones. Looks to be 1940's and in Michigan, anyone have a name for these gents? Roy

I don't know who they are, but I can tell you from first hand experience that shooting with a necktie on is not a good idea!  :scared:

Roy, Great pic. I love these type. Are those patches of some sort the gentleman on the left has on both shoulders or something else?

Can't see the bow on the right to well but based on the left one I would agree 40's time frame.

They sure look like they are having a good time though!

That's what I thought....hence, the tie.

Hmmmmmmm  Bowfishing on the job...our tax dollars at work.

Well, maybe not our tax dollars, but our parents and grand parents tax dollars.

I donno Rich.  That is a pretty liberal string of fish.  Reagan and Ford would have been a bit more conservative.
