This is a beautiful pair of classic bamboo cross-country racing poles. They are the same type that would have been used by top racers in the mid-1960s. The "VM Staven" line by Liljedahl (now a part of Swix) was their top tier; VM stands for "verden mester" or world champion. The VM Staven badging on the poles is the original incarnation, used briefly before being updated.
Labels a bit worn, but the baskets and handles/straps are in great shape!
