Universal Brooms Limited is the company that produced the Shooting Star broom.

Operating from 1955 until going out of business in 1978, the Universal Broom company’s Shooting Star racing broom was inexpensive and extremely popular. Unfortunately, the broom’s initial good performance did not improve with age (QA9).
