Looking at it today I think the circles do look like targets - but they look like archery targets. They remind me of the kind of targets my uncle used when he practiced archery. Maybe that was the intent of the Indian Head to connect archery and Indians?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02776807733525171428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-23407069416781156062009-11-08T12:19:56.556-08:002009-11-08T12:19:56.556-08:00Rob, fascinating story on the test pattern.

You can google 'reticle' and then check out the images.<br /><br />J.
