<FONT face=Arial> <P>Does anyone know anything about an old OLT call. It's black molded plastic, maybe bakelite. I haven't been able to find any information to identify it. </P> <P>Stamped in the barrel is: </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">P.S. Olt</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Pekin, Ill</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Registered Trademark</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">No. 348205</P> <P>Molded in the end of the bell is: 33</P> <P>It has a strange reed/mouthpiece setup.</P> <P>It belonged to my Dad. I suspect it is '50's or '60's vintage, could be older. If it's a duck call it sounds terrible. It sounds more like a crow. Any info is appreciated.</P> <P>Thanks</P></FONT>
<P>look on ebay , they bring in a few dollars. they also can be modified to be a sweet sounding call.</P>
Try asking the guys at http://www.djcalls.com/ The one gentleman that works there worked for the Olt Company for over twenty years and now works for them. If you send him a picture he can give you information on the call and about what it's worth. Hope that helps some. <img src="http://www.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif" align="middle" border="0"><br>
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">Mightyduck.</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Thanks for the tip to DJ Illinois Valley Calls. Turns out my ear was right, It is a E-1 crow call made fron 1940 to 1957. There was a picture of it on the website in Davids Olt call collection.</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Thanks again</P>
Glad I could help....<img src="http://www.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/thumb.gif" align="middle" border="0"><br>
