A couple of prized possessions:
Banjo: Bacon Professional FF, c. 1918
Shotgun: Fox Sterlingworth 16ga Ejector, c. 1935
Both still doing their jobs (when I do mine ) 89 and 71 years later, respectively. |

Way Cool! I'll bet they both make sweet music. |

Hey! Pickin' and shootin', a combination that never fails to impress.
I've got a Deering Goodtime 2 and a Fulton 16ga.
My question - where is the flyrod? Seems like you're missing that third piece. |

Well, my only bamboo rod is an old South Bend and I never fish it. One of my favorites is a 3wt made in Korea ; I woulda had to retitle the post! |
