mistake Mack made
A confession not to be confused with a commercial.
I knew something was wrong today when I inscribed 3011 on a whistle, because at a whistle a day it would take 8.2 years to make that many whistles. I have only been at it 6 years and I don't average a whistle a day!
I couldn't sleep because of these thoughts so that's the reason for this midnight hour.
Mack made a mistake in numbering whistles!
I not only jumped from 2099 to 3000, but I had jumped from 1099 to 2000! A mere 1800 whistles...
So if anyone notices a discrepency in the numbers, that's the cause. I guess I'll offer an apology rather than a recall!
I'll be going back to 1100 tomorrow. It reminds me of the game of Aggravation!

i have to admit, i looked at the number on my recently acquired whitecap, and said to myself, "yeah, right, 20 whistles a month, he would have to be like 86 years old
thanks for clarifying.
although, this will confuse collectors in years to come. maybe the numbers you go back to should have an * next to them.

You think that's confusing, the early flutes and other woodwinds had a letter system which some people thought to be owners initials.
The word MUSICTRADE would be used to represent 1234567890
So S/N 123 would be depicted as MUS, 246 would be UIT.
And to add to this:
Some Companys uses the 1000's, 2000's, 3000's, etc for different models.

- Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.
