Does the second one look like your style too? I think I got both of those at once.

What is the brand name of your whistles?

Pretty sure-but not laying any money down-that the 2nd from top is not a Parks. He initially started whistle making to have whistles which wouldn't corrode in the salt air from his sea kayaking. So no metal.Possible something he was playing with but I'd be surprised if it is his it was an item for commercial sale. Didn't have metal in the tuning slides until more recent years.

I might be in error. Just a reasonable speculation on my part.

But I'll lay ya 8 to 5..........

Turn the second one over and look for the white dot?
If it’s there I made that one also.

Hi, Ava. :thumbsup:

Been quite a while for me too, though I saw that I did a random hit-and-run post just a couple of years ago.
