Title: Great Time in Nashville
Post by: Jake St. John on February 14, 2015, 07:27:15 PM

The Highlight of Mr. E's trip this year was looking at and running Tom Turpin orginal  boxes that were in Earl Mickels collection.  Bill Jones (Pictured with a shortbox) was doing a great job at showing the calls that were for sale.  Just to get a chance to examine and run the orginals of what you have been making for the past 27 years was the ultimate experience for me.   Thanks Bill.

Man I sure wish I had been there. I miss a once in a lifetime chance to at least hold some of the greatest calls ever made. Maybe one of the guys that were lucky enough to buy one of them before the collection was sold to Jonny Morris.
