I picked up a couple of static(steamed?) Osage recurve bows at an estate sale.  The only marking on the first one is 'Stalker' on side of bow opposite of arrow rest

Bow # two.  This one is also Osage but appears to be wrapped by the maker.  It's Osage backed with something that looks like a early glass backing.  The cloth wrap makes it look like a 'mummy'. Arrow rest plate is on outside of the wrap.  No markings can be seen with wrap in place.

Here's what is under the wrap.  Looks like a layer of glass on back of bow only.

It's cleaning up really nicely.  First coat of Tru Oil made the color pop.
