Not that it's any sort of proof, but even if they were never used the cork on those should be extremely flat after years of sitting in the call.

Re: where to find old labels
I'm no expert, but the first call pictured looks old. The second set doesnt look old. The stickers are two crisp and clean. Sounds like somebody either hit the mother lode of stashed unused calls, the original mfg changed labels, and the boxes got lost or someone is dealing under the table.

Re: where to find old labels
What about the difference in the reeds of the first one and the latter two?

Re: where to find old labels
Can't speak for that particular maker, but a lot of calls from that period went through a change from black to the more modern milky mylar. Also, it's entirely possible one would need to replace a reed later and be unable to get the old material.mshunter77 wrote:What about the difference in the reeds of the first one and the latter two?

Re: where to find old labels
Reeds are not going to prove my point. Keys to this are going to be the newness of the finish on the call and the labels.Bill Cooksey wrote:Can't speak for that particular maker, but a lot of calls from that period went through a change from black to the more modern milky mylar.
