Ces Burwell was a well known boomerang maker and thrower in the 1940s - 1970s. Ces is the father of Bob Burwell, one of Australia's best known boomerang throwers and a top rated world competitor. Find out more about the Burwell family on Bob's web site: Historical Photographs of the Burwell Family. This very large traditional boomerang was made in the 1970s out of Coachwood plywood. This boomerang has the Burwell boomerang logo on the underside. The Burwell logo is neatly painted in color on the upper surface of the elbow. There are two white stripes painted on each blade with a coating of high gloss varnish or polyurethane, top and bottom. The flight range is 30+ metres. This boomerang is in excellent condition except for light wear to the paint from use. This is a very rare and collectable Burwell boomerang. |
