Too many vaiables to consider without knowing more. Some Bear models are better than others ex- Cub, Polar, Kodiak, etc. Some years are better than others, Are there any stress cracks, checkering of the finish, are the limbs twisted. Is there a medallion near the grip and if so is it gold, silver or bronze (denotes approx year of manuf). Generally older Bear recurves have a good collector value but value can vary from $20 to $600 depending on the above mentioned issues. Ebay can give you a approx value if you can find a similiar condition bow of the same model and year. Generally older compounds have very low value.
