I got one of those 77-B Bell Targets off of Etsy a number of years back for 30-40 bucks. Thought they had to be repros for that price and I'm sure they are but really well done. The box is a work of art. Did the real Daisy target come in the same style box? I have one in a different style box that says Daisy Bell Ringing Target. Might be from the 50's.

Thinking back on this I have to wonder, who would put in the time and effort to do this. If I remember correctly the guy said he had a case of these when he was selling them. Now I know things can be copied overseas real cheap as I knew some guys that have done this with fake Rolex watches and power tools but a box of Daisy Bell targets. Where is the profit.

YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED ON THE CHEAP COST OF MANUFACTURING IN CHINA - AS AN EXAMPLE, ABOUT 12 YEARS AGO MY SON AND HIS WIFE WERE IN BUSINESS OF DECORATIVE GLASS PLATES (SOLD DIRECT AND AT TJMAX FOR $25 EACH). PRODUCED IN USA FOR $8 . GOT QUOTE FROM CHINA AT $1.23 EACH SHIPPED. HUGE DIFFERENCE. BUT COST THEM ANOTHER $1 TO GET THEM THRU CUSTOMS AND NEWARK, NJ DOCK. I WONDER HOW MUCH DAISY PAYS FOR THE GUNS MADE IN CHINA ?????

I know Target wise for here atleast you can get UK printed cards for not too different a price as the Chinese ones but actual Metal side there can be a big gulf in price and thats with the Chinese ones still being pricey.
Would anyone be willing to put up a High Res scan of the Targets for download? Been looking at making my own and anything acctually Daisy branded seems to be thin on the ground, I've purposely avoided using my Fun Kit ones as I can't get more and haven't scanned them yet. |
