The Silver Arrow is a popular broomstick produced by Leonard Jewkes.[1]
About[]
The Silver Arrow achieved high speeds of up to seventy miles an hour with a tailwind.[1]
History[]
The Silver Arrow was invented by Leonard Jewkes in the early twentieth century, and was considered a "true frontrunner of the racing broom". The broom surpassed previous broomsticks including the Moontrimmer, but Leonard could not keep up with the demand which far outstripped supply.[1]
Rolanda Hooch is a fan of Silver Arrows and learned how to fly on one. She thought it was a pity that they had stopped producing the broomstick.[2]
