Title: GR8CALLS from Nashville....2015
Post by: GR8CALLS on February 21, 2015, 01:54:04 PM

 I went to the convention not expecting to bring home anything special. BUT, I was bitten once aging by the collecting bug!

From the Earl Mickel collection:

The famous, Door Knocker call from the Rock House Hunt Club. This was a club that Neil Cost was a member of and where many of his favorite stories of Gobblers who came and went.....home, with him!  *up* *up*

Also from Earl's collection, one of Ralph Permar's # 1 calls.
