Well I don't know a ton about them but I know they were made in California late 50's and early 60's.Just like all bows built in California in those days bow builders were influenced by the great Harry Drake.Corky's White & Whites Special and yes Starfire were all originally built in Calie.Starfire later went to Black widow for there bows and most other small Calie bow builders went by the wayside.This is a trip too I have a 1959 Starfire that will shoot as good if not better then 99% of the bows built today.........Thanks Harry bd

Good looking bow!
