My father in law is an antique dealer and these were in an estate he bought a few weeks ago, hanging on a string on the corner of a bed. Along with a round hole D2 Olt and a small green plastic wood duck call that have yet to surface from the shop yet. The owner (late 70s gentleman) sold the contents of his mothers house after they had gone through it and gotten what they wanted. I don't think they knew what they were worth, but I do know they knew they were there.
I looked through the 2 call books I have (need more) and I couldn't find a comparable for the unmarked one. A guy over at the fuge seems to know but is baiting me a bit right now. It's killin me, I need to know what it is.
It is kind of early "Charles Perdew"-esk with the saucer looking collar and burn lines. But that is merely a wishful thinking guess.

I think I have an ID. 1942 Chick Majors Dixie. Got to look closer at the marks on the call when I get home. I think this may be the stamp, just worn off.

that's awesome. if you want me to get ahold of Butch he could tell you for sure.

great find, bud.
