Your most expensive call

I don't have any idea what my "most expensive" call is but I have many that are priceless. 
Calls made by true friends.  Many of the calls didn't cost much monitarily.  Some were gifts and some were purchased.  None can be replaced.  The list of great call makers that I call friends that I have calls from is long and I thank the good Lord for them. 
No trees were hurt in the sending of this message, however a large number of electrons were highly inconvenienced.

I paid $3000 for a cost call once from Dick Kirby's collection.  Actually bought two of them for a total of $5000

Talk about a wise investment!  I suspect that if you decide to part with it, you will probably be able to sell it for a little bit more than that!   ;) ;D

I got $100 to triple your money and then some.    :)

Great piece of history to have!

I'm guessing a Turpin style box or maybe Billy Bob Turpin.
