Title: Dick kirby box call
Post by: Nate on February 13, 2021, 06:38:51 PM
Field grade signed and dated in 1983 what would a call like that be worth? Or what's a fair price? Any help out there.

I dont have a good grasp of what Quaker Boy calls usually sell for. I will say there may have been no one who signed as many calls as Dick Kirby did. Thats not to take away from the call or tell you its worthless. They also  set aside some designated Supreme Grade that were numbered. How does it sound?

I'd say it's worth $40 if you like it and sounds good. See them on ebay on occasion.

Grand old master was my go too locator back in the day, cutting on that thing got a lot of response!

Mine is from the 90s though and not signed, a guy I used to work for has a high grade call from them signed by Dick at the convention years ago, beautiful call!
