hobie Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Re: Any call collectors??? I helped my sister move out of her house to a place about 40 miles away.She had this display case that has been my great grandmothers and did not have the room for it at her Condo.So I took it off her hands.Well after the call getting broke I was that angry and worked up I had to do something so I cleaned it up and put it in my living room. These are all my custom calls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Re: Any call collectors??? That's a great looking display hobie. I'm not a call collector myself, just a call accumulator. Never much thought about any of the calls I've picked up over the years being worth more than past memories in the turkey woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just a pretty big commitment. Just got to thinking......I shoulda posted a pic of my "Harolds". I've got a couple real sweeeet sounding Tuscarora Legend boxes.
