very early (1970s & 1980s) American made booms by Eric
Darnell, Dave Schumm, Keith Robson, Lesta Bertoia, Nick McAullife
and Allen Lilly. There is a large selection of multi-bladers by a
variety of boom makers and some unusual shapes including a Swiss

and Lap Joint booms, including several by Doug DuFresne and Will
Watts. There are 14 long distance and extreme range booms
including 3 large wooden LD models by Herb Smith from his personal

high performance and not regular catalog items. There are 9
plastic boomerang lots and 11 lefty booms. The last 5 items
include: Swiss Team T-shirts, a copy of the Hess Thesis, a
Kangaroo Gun, a Wind Flag and miscellaneous Virazon Club
