i have an aunt that is a garage sale fanatic !!! couple months ago i told her that if she ever came across any cheap turkey calls to get them for me... this past weekend she handed me a very old looking lynch box .said she gave $0.15 for it !!!!!!! i have never seen a lynch box like it . on lynch boxes you bye today have "World Champion Turkey Calls made by M.L. Lynch , liberty Mississippi " on them..... the one she got me says the same except it was" made in Birmingham Alabama"it looks nothing like the 101 or 102 models you can get today...and it sounds awesome !!!!! perfect yelps to a T..
just wondering if anybody else has seen one of these calls??? if i had to guess i would say its at least 40-50 years old

I have seen Lynch calls all my life and I'm 35. I know several older turkey hunters that won't use any other box, and some of theirs are as old or older than me. Best sounding box calls I have ever heard.
Stirred my curiosity also. e is a link.

My bro-in-law uses one just like it too. When we go out its the only call he will carry. Turkeys and I both like the sound it makes but not as much as my jackpot slate. lol
