How do you guys display your collections?.
« on: May 26, 2017, 08:16:58 PM »
My box call collection keeps getting larger with each passing season. I am wondering how you all display your collections, specifically box calls but would love to hear and see what you do regardless of affliction.  I would like something that I could easily play the calls when the urge strikes.

So what do you fellas do? Pictures encouraged and welcomed!

Thanks in advance!

Every antique piece of furniture that I acquire to display my calls get confiscated by my better half. So no I have no pics except displays of china and figurines. My collection at the present is protected by a hoosier cabinet. Just don't tell her they are in there!!!  :funnyturkey:

Good to see I am not the only one with a box call addiction!
I need a cabinet like that. I have 50+ boxes that need a better home than inside a sock, inside of a tote...

I have seen some very nice displays of outdoor things using old gun cabinets. Everybody uses safes now and GCs bring little to nothing.
