It may be one of Pearson's target models - lemonwood bow with a walnut handle. Probably from the 1940s. The called them flatbows rather than longbows. Is there a number stamped into it or a draw weight?
If you post this on the Leatherwall someone will likely know exactly what it is.

It appears to be Lemonwood with a walnut riser handle. It may possibly be hickory but lemonwood was widely used. I’m thinking a student/college type bow, or one used at public archery ranges, that once were common as mini golf/arcade type of venues.
