    In the 1960s, you could buy these in weird stuff shops in the Tottenham Court Road in London. I'd say fairly modern, possibly native made, tourist souvenirs.

    I'd agree, a souvenir made for sale to tourists. From the style of bamboo arrows, the colors used, the woven section on the quiver, I'd say it came from South America, but that's about as close as I can come to identifying it.

    The ones I saw were supposed to come from the Amazon jungles. With poison arrows but that part may have been marketing.
    I passed on the fishing kit but bought a small (3ft.) stuffed caiman (sort of alligator beast) that I had for years.
