What I got?
Dad gave me this 36 years ago. I’m thinking he probably had it close to that long as well. Any ideas or recognition? Definitely a gobbler type call ( deeeep rasp). We are originally from Virginia and am pretty sure it’s from that area.

Pretty nice cedar box. How does it sound?

Like the biggest, baddest, deep voiced gobbler you have ever heard

You are holding a piece of history, very nice find.
That is how A. Rutledge abbreviated his last name in his latter years
Be careful of that certain element on this forum that will try to lowball you on offers

Re: What I got?
Thankyou. Anything more you or anyone can tell me about it? I will talk to my Dad and see if he remembers how he got it ( not a Turkey hunter) or anything else he knows.
