Did any of you see the Lynch 'Turkey in the pines' call go for $14,000 a while back?
The man that bought in is a friend of mine, he has a nice collection of old calls. He also bought 3 or 4 fake Cost calls for $1,500 each. He was told by another collector that they were fake, so he sent one to me for my opinion. Bad job. At first glance I knew they were fakes. He got his money back but the calls are probably still out there to catch somebody else.

They say the only time a fishermen tells the truth is when he tells you another fisherman is a liar.
Attention Whore
What $14,000 for a Lynch in the Pine? Was it something very unique or a fool for a buyer??

The Turkey In The Pines calls were the first that Lynch made. He didn't make many & only a few are still around. That is what makes them highly collectable & valuable.
Gibson calls bring a good price, depending on condition.
Rutledge calls also will bring big bucks, if you can prove it is real.
A duck call sold a few yrs ago for $100,000 +.
Collecting folk art is a strange business.
A Henry Davis trumpet call sold recently for $55,000.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I saw on the site where the DU banguet was going to be held at his place. Also saw where the 'Friends of the NRA' auction/banquet is going to be there.Originally Posted by JacksonsHuntingDuke
I'm gonna try and make the auction. Not sure yet though whether I'll be able to. Where exactly is his place?

Merg when you pass the old store (Skeets I think was the name of it) on 25 coming out of Greenwood his building will be on the right across from Riley Rd.

Gotcha. I know exactly where it is now. Thanks
Is there anything in the old Skeets store building anymore. I stopped in there a few years ago and they had some pretty good deals on boots.
