Title: What are they worth........
Post by: superstrutter on January 07, 2012, 03:52:12 PM
Me and Mom were out rooting around this afternoon and I came across a couple calls. One is a 1958 Lynch call, very good shape. The other is call named Ideals Turkey call from Sykesville, Pa. I have never heard of these before. It's made kinda like a Lynch call, but just a little shorter, still has the original rubber bands on it, it has the paperwork and all. It's in good shape. If anyone would know what they are worth, please shoot me a message.

The Lynch call depends on where it was made. What is the rest of the printing on it. Can you post a picture?

I know the Alabama Lynch calls are the money calls, I can't see the other side of the call. It's in a case and the back is covered. It does have 1958 stamped on the left side.

Lynch Calls vary alot in price . The Alabama World Champion used to bring a fair price but they have dropped down to the point that if you watch ebay closely , they can be bought for as little as $25.00 on the right day . In a stronger market they used to draw over $200. The Ideals Call is probably worth $35-45 dollars to the right buyer . But one thing holds true even today , A caller is worth whatever a buyer is willing to shell out for it . I would hang on to them for a few more years in hopes that the call market gets better . Congrats !!
