Default 1918 Wolverine Kibbie long bow

I recieved my grandfathers bow. It is a wooden longbow with leather handle wrap made by Kibbie from Coldwater, Mi (est 1918). It appears to be a 32 lb Wolverine model. I have 12 original birch arrows with good feathers and the Wolverine service arrow box. Any ideas on the history? Thoughts on value?...it will not be sold. These are heirloms that will be passed on to my son someday. Thanks

That was a tad before my time. I did turn up the name Fred Kibbe, publisher of 'The American Archer' magazine in the 20's and 30's. Might be the same guy?
