        As an archery history buff, I love old stuff like this…especially my home state. “The Archers’ Magazine” was the official organ for the National Archery Association, which was founded at Crawfordsville, Indiana, in 1879. This is a blurb about the Pa. Bowhunters Assoc., and the upcoming second archery season in Pa. The first archery only was 1951. Pa. adopted the bow and arrow as a legal weapon in 1929….the first state to do so, but didn’t have a separate archery season until ’51.

          Very cool George I love this kinda of stuff.
          Whenever I’m at yard sales or flea markets I always look for things like this.
