Is someone currently reproducing the old Herter's line of Bows?

Some of them. primitivebowhunter.com/
Mark Barrie is the bowyer/owner and the son of Bob Barrie who designed the original Herter's bows.

I went to that site. I can't say there's very much there in the way of Herter's bow's. In fact, the "bow" tab on the left of the screen didn't work.

As George mentioned, Mark Barrie is the bowyer/owner, but I thought he was Bob's nephew.

Yes...he is Bob's nephew..and I even knew that, so that was a brain fart. 8^).
MStyles....he is not making Herter's bows, he is making his own line. To my eyes, the Takedown and the one piece bows are very much reminiscent of the old Herter's bows and the similarities are evident. The takedown is basically identical save for the clear glass on Mark's bows.

OK, George, now I see what you mean, not a replica. The lines of that one piece recurve remind's me of a BP Mercury Hunter. I like it. Thank's for the pictures.
