Question about Bear quiver
« on: March 16, 2011, 06:55:00 PM »
I come across some vintage archery gear at a sale today,one of the items I picked up was a Bear leather top tape on quiver,the guy I got it from said he also had the box for it.I'm not sure if this is the original box for it or not.I was thinking they come in a red and white box instead of green and white.If not what is the correct quiver for the box?Thanks for your help.

That seems to be the correct box according to the 1964 catalog. In 1964 the tape-on model # is L-650 which is whats on your box.

The leather top quiver was in use for 10 years and had some subtle changes."L" was the correct prefix for 1960's and "Q" during the 1950's. We still have not seen the quiver, it could be the correct box and quiver-or maybe not.

What was mixing me up was the paperwork states 3620 Tape-on model 3625 Screw-on model and the box states L 650.The numbers weren't matching up,wasn't sure if this was the catalog number or model number.Thanks

Looks perfect! That is quite a find-looks brand new-has it ever been used?

Great find for sure.
If it's not something you must have, there are lot's of Bear Archery collectors that may have something you search for and
(THINK TRADE) swap meets are always fun too.....Philip

A great find in that condition. I believe that quiver sold new for $12.95.
