Exceptional Arboriginal Boomerang Roy Barker Australia Woganurra Vintage

Description

New inasmuch as there’s no evidence that it’s ever been thrown. No signs of any damage. But there is a small hairline crack along the grain. Exceptionally selected wood. Notice how the grain follows around the elbow for the full length with only one tiny knot. I’ve compared this to others and this is the finest example. I strongly feel that this is made by Roy Barker. While his name isn’t on it, “Woganurra” is carefully scripted in his hand as compared to others I’ve found. It’s almost perfectly flat. It measures 60 cm straight end to end, 7 cm across the elbow. I ignore low ballers. This is a museum piece
