I talked to the Grand GURU today, and he told me wraps have been around since the 40's or 50's. A bit uncertain without looking it up as to exactly when. I guess it just goes to show, there really isn't anything new. The head is a New Big Game released in 56, so I guess that dates the arrow, as sometime after that. I should have more coming in early next week, Great arrows if they are all as nice as this one.
