$5 Trumpet Call ~ per Dozen

[Seth41]

Old Ad from the early 1900's.  Seemed they were using Cocobolo.
Anyone ever tried one of these old calls?
Cheers, Seth

This one is from 1912

Which begs the question why we tend to credit Turpin with the first turned bells?

Looks like a BGI trumpet call


could you post a pic of the rest of the ad for the "Franks ear stopple"

was this early ear plugs for noise, or to keep bugs from crawling in the ear when camping/sleeping

I'd like to hunt with one of those one time.

Old BGI yelper. Seems they have appreciated a little bit.
