Clyde Harbin's Game Call Collection

Clyde Harbin's Game Call Collection

 

 

Welcome to Mr. Clyde A. Harbin Sr. listing of Duck, Goose, Crow, Pintail, Hawk and other Game Calls.  The identification of the older highly collectables calls to the lesser valuable modern makers is the best I could dig up!!  I regret any mistakes made.

Please carefully note as I do not know the various woods used in these calls.  Therefore the color pictures are for your perusal.
