Peter Marsh produced one of the most successful hunting and fishing collectibles shows in the country from 2001-2010 in Kansas City. Both dealers and collectors came to Kansas City from north and south and all points in between to enjoy, sell and purchase all types of hunting, fishing and related items from times gone by. Some of the items were considered tools of the trade, but now are considered works of art and are coveted by legions of collectors. Mr. Marsh has since devoted his time to other interests.
Scott Luetticke of Pin Oak Hill Restaurant and Gun Club and Ron Willis, both from Chillicothe, took up where he left off to produce the North Central Missouri Hunting & Fishing Collectible Show at Chillicothe, a quality show with the same spirit and excellence of the original Kansas City show.
