Well, after ten years of patients, I have finally completed collecting, Niles Oesterle's "Quarter series" of box calls. Niles was commisioned to build 50 calls (one each for every new state quarter). He made five a year and they were auctioned off at the NWTF national convention each year. This year marked the final year of their production...and the quest to place all 50 in one collection.

That is one heck of a collecting accomplishment. We know for sure that you are bitten by the bug! Congrats on getting them all together finally!

Congrats Bill. Actually I think it would be easier to get all your calls together and rent a helicopter and take an aerial photograph of all of them at the same time. *up* *up*

I figured you could just spread em out on your driveway, then get on the roof with a wide angle lense and take a snapshot or two. But if its too much trouble I understand...LOL!

OK.............I'll give this a try. Because of the very complete descriptions that Niles puts on each call, I am only posting pictures of the 50 calls. Go to the collectors thread to view the photos. I will be posting five calls at a time...begining w/ the last five and going backwards.

want me to hold you hostage and force you to post them :)
