I can't think of anyone who used a Red Baron logo. Might have been a homemade bow that someone christened 'The Red Baron'?

No idea here either--but there's gobs of old bows out there that were locally famous that nobody else ever heard of--still would be, if not for the internet!

True. I hadn't thought of that. Like at our club where a bunch of us have made longbows off a form belonging to one of our members. He won't make a bow for you, but will let you use his form. So, we all shoot 'Al Bows', but few people outside our club know about them. You've seen my Al Bow, Chad, last time you were here for the Texas State Longbow Championships.
