Or just shoot an arrow through a bunch of Scientology propaganda for the price of a compound bow and a broadhead. Please don't sue me Tom Cruise, Isaac Hayes, or Nancy Cartwright. Were any of you ever one of Elron's hotpants clad cigarette girls?

Someone should start producing these, they'd really have a shot at fame.

Do you think this would work on a narrow shelf?

They aren't in a straight line.

If you are going to make arrow book ends, it is incumbent on you to make them STRAIGHT for gods sake.
