Great set of darts, mega rare, these possibly may have been the orignal set before they could have been re-branded and sold as "Jack Hood darts" (as per grips set posted on here).

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

They had a cracking set of original News of the world flights in the box.

These are Mint condition.

Yep that is exactly the same as the Hoods I had, it a bit of a puzzle really.

A very unique dart though, thanks for posting mate good job

Not normally a fan of the old, vintage and collectable darts but I really like the look of those darts throw

I thought you had some already Mark?

Guess not.

I have only seen them a few times on Ebay, and in two occasions it was as Jack Hood darts.

I would just like to add Stuart, that mine in the Jack Hood case came with the identical news of the world flights as yours, and I have also seen another set on ebay in the Jack Hood case with the same flights, so it makes you wonder if these are the original flights

No, that was a set that got away. Like you the price went way to high for me at the time.
Still on the wish list.

Well, there simply has to be some connection with Jack Hood and these darts, although Dr-Darts said there was no affiliation, It seems a bit strange that there seems to be multiple sets out there in Jack Hood Cases.

Maybe Jack purchased a load of these darts cheap and sold them off in his cases ??
