For Sale is a nice Penns Woods Box call.  Asking $65 shipped.
Are you willing to step out of the boat as Peter did?  Think about it, he wouldn't have walked on water without stepping out of the boat!

How collectable are these calls? I'm just curious because i bought one at a flee market for $5 last year.

No idea. I bought it because I had one like it in the late 80s that caused a few gobblers to ride home with me. The one I had is long gone , to where I dont know.

True Tones generally bring a $25 - $35 price........... WITHOUT the box.   Having the original box can and usually does at least double the value of older, production box calls.

Whoever bought this particular call did OK.   If you got one, even without the box, for 5 bucks, you did swell !!!

Neat old calls.......   I believe, IIRC, that Penn's Woods/Roger Latham got some rights to build these boxes right from the Turpins.

The good Lord ain't made a gobbler I can't kill.  I just gotta be there at the right time.....  on the day he wants to die.

The one i have does sound good. I just haven't seen many pop up for sale so i figured i would ask here to get some information on it. Thanks for the replies fellas.

1st box I ever bought. I believe it was '84-ish... mine has the "new" velcro strap, though. Use to listen to a 45 rpm record of Roger.

Thats why i bought it. I actually killed a few birds with one and it didnt sound half bad.

Guys,

I went to get the original box on top of the refrigerator, and found out that my wife had thrown it away..  If you are still interested in the call, I will sell it for $45 shipped..

I have several of these calls and been the demise of several ol' gobblers!!!

Oh, I forgot to add that Spitten and Drummin decided not to buy because of the original box missing.. So still for sale.
