Hi,

do you mean

Needs["Graphics`Arrow`"]
Needs["Graphics`Graphics`"]


Show[
  PolarPlot[100/theta, {theta, Pi/4, 4  Pi}, DisplayFunction ->
Identity] /.
       Line[{other__, a_, b_}] :> {Line[{other, a}], Arrow[a, b]}, 
  DisplayFunction -> $DisplayFunction
  ]


or

Show[
  PolarPlot[100/theta, {theta, Pi/4, 20  Pi}, DisplayFunction ->
Identity] /.

        Line[pnts_] :> (Arrow[{0, 0}, #] & /@ pnts),
  DisplayFunction -> $DisplayFunction
  ]

Regards
  Jens
