Here we go. The photos show the strap, how they came in 1967. Only replaced by now, as the rubber wears out. The white paper is just to make it easier to see the strap, the next pic shows the strap making a loop over the bow.
The straps ensure that the moving bow does not interfear with the cloth. 100 percent original, yeah man! I'm that way. Less talk, more action.
