Old Ben Pearson longbow

[Dorado]

There's an estate sale going on this weekend and they have an old Ben Pearson longbow for sale. There are no markings other than the manufacturer's label. I don't know what length or poundage it is but I would guess about 62" 30-35# maybe 40#.
I'd like to know if is worth anything they're asking $65 for it.
Sorry about the poor quality photos that's the best I could do with my phone.

Try posting this on the history and collecting forum here on TG.  I could be surprised, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find someone that would buy it for more than $65.  I am not a Pearson expert though so don't trust my word

Neat looking bow.

Those old Pearson bows usually go for about half that at antique shops around here. They are usually dried out, rarely straight and the riser build-up is ready to pop off. I have two in the to-be-fixed pile.

I really just wanted the thing for a wall hanger as it looked neat with the sight. Figured I'd get few antique arrows and hang it up.
