Pictures, pictures, pictures.

I can tell you that the Mace was part of the Golden Sovereign line of Pearson bows, but you already know that by the decal.  The 1053 would be the model number.

Ben Pearson bows can be hard to date but there are Pearson collectors here that can help you...I'm just not one of them
