This hunting boomerang, or throwstick, was made out of Mulga, a dense hardwood found in the Central Desert of Australia. Both surfaces have a rough hewn adze finish. Based on color and construction, it was probably made in the early 20th Century. I acquired this boomerang in 1998 from Rob Croll, a well known collector from Melbourne. This boomerang is in very nice condition. There are no chips or dings other than minor construction marks. A very nice example of a Central Desert throwstick.
I purchased, sold and traded a large number of artifacts over 50 years. I no longer add artifacts to my collection. All of the artifact I am currently selling are from my personal collection and they are the cream of the crop. No junk here. Check out my other auctions to see my other artifact sales. I will be listing more in the near future. Please note: I try to charge actual shipping costs on all items. To save on shipping, you can purchase multiple items and wait until I send you an invoice. No international shipping. The winning bidder agrees to make contact with me within 2 days of the end of the auction and/or to make payment within 4 days. I will leave feedback after the buyer receives their item and leaves positive feedback for me. Check out my other auction items. I often list similar items in other categories. Most of my listings include collectibles from the Panama Canal Zone, artifacts, books, stamps and coins. This includes boomerangs, license plates, molas, celts, slings and Aboriginal items. If an item does not sell, I often relist it within a month at a lower price. Good luck and many thanx for purchasing my eBay items. |
