Do you collect other sporting items besides Parkers?

Winchester pump .22's: Models 1890, 1906, 62's and 61's.

Antique Maine Trout and Salmon mounts/carvings but the greats. Fishing creels and many old Wood/Canvas canoes.

haha...I bet I’m the only one here with a small collection of historic and classic surfboards and snowboards. I do have a bunch of old side by sides too.

Besides collecting guns-I have acquired several decoys(masons and individual carvers) Some Winchester store items(my favorite is a early super rare 1920's wooden childs wagon in beautiful untouched condition with store tag). A few examples of sporting art-one by Edmund Osthaus. I used to have several shotshell boxes and antique ammo but only kept a couple of favorites. I also have around 15 fishing creels from top makers like Lawrence and Macmonies. Almost forgot to mention the antique Limoge game plates and the whole set of antique Buffalo pottery game plates in my china cabinet made by Gustav Stickley in the 1920's.

Because way back in my early years i couldn't afford to buy decoys, i ordered cork blocks and carved them. Did this for many years as my friends that i duck hunted with always were asking me to make some for them. Have a few left that ive made and will keep for my two grandsons. I particularly enjoyed making them out of high density cork blocks.

I was not previously aware of this, but according to my wife, I collect everything.

Probably mostly dust.

Nope. Once a month, I put the backpack blower on and give it all a good dusting.

Atleast your wife understands the concept of “collecting or accumulating” . That whole concept is lost on my Filipina wife lols ! She says when o go to a shoot it’s “socializing” not shooting and to be honest to a degree she’s correct .
