Title: Custom Call collections
Post by: FinsnFur on September 03, 2006, 03:07:46 PM
Let's see some photos from those of you that collect Custom Calls from various makers. I know there's got to be some pretty big collections out there.

Todd, you might have to take a couple panoramic shots of yours :eyebrownod:

Well if this works,these are my collection so far. Not a very good pic,need a camera.I have only been collecting about 2 years so don't have many. :argh:                                                                                                                                                                            (http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f176/straycat55/f7dc1d48.jpg)


The ones on top,except the three in front and the two howlers,are ones I made. Guess they don't count since I'm not an expert !   :innocentwhistle:   Hope to build it up over the next few months. Straycat

Stray your pics a little small but it appears ya have osme nice calls in the collection.  :congrats: If your refering to the second picture as calls you made? The laminated call looks to be cut at an angle giving the spin a twist look? If so nice touch. Looks good.

Yes Todd,those are small pics with a bad camera.  :argh:   Also yes the second picture is ones I made,the laminated one was one of the first,has a slight angle cut but not on purpose.  :innocentwhistle:  I'll try to get better pictures later.Thanks for the comments.(http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f176/straycat55/982e7bd1.jpg)

I can't part with em Todd, but you should be able to tell who I got them from in this photo. Look him up.

They came with a pretty good price tag but their my favorites.

By the way, I think I just invented the ultimate illuminated photo box, redneck style. I put the calls in my igloo Playmate cooler and pointed the pocket l.e.d. light on em  :eyebrownod:

Oh Jim give me some credit.  :wink: I know exactly when, where, and how much you got them for. I keep good notes on calls of intrest. I didn't have the funds at the time but recall them being the only blue set made.  :shck: Nice additional picture by the way.

I figured I was better to ask for that one then risk a move for the custom Willketchum call ya got there.  :innocentwhistle: But if'n ya want to part with that one instead?  :wo:

Well Stray ya ought to figure out how ya made that mistake. As for now its the only predator call I recall seeing like that, and that twist has a lot nicer look then a strait spun laminated call.  :wink:

Edited do to: When using the seek and distry typing method, try not to seek with the right finger, and distroy with the lef t finger.  :madd:

What did I pay for the blue duel? I wanna say $40 bucks, but I can't remember if that was for one or the pair.
I'm not going to sell em, so be honest if you remember :eyebrownod:

You didn't look in the closet.  :roflmao:  Jim I don't have my notes here at work  :innocentwhistle: but it was either $80 or $85 for the set, not quite a year agao. At $40 I would have sold a kids bicycle for the set.  :biggrin:

What about the engraved Wilketchum  :biggrin:

Hey Bob nice calls ya got there!

Jim,

If I remember right the price was 80.00 on the blue set. I can look it up in my notes if you want but I am pretty sure it was 80.00
