This is the oldest amateur radio trophy in Saskatchewan dating back to one of the first Hamfests.  The trophy was home-made featuring a small frame on which was mounted a fur lined button hole.  This trophy was awarded to the Saskatchewan ham who could tell the tallest tale at the Hamfest.

The trophy went missing around 1985 and a replacement trophy has was made up to take its place and then the trophy reappeared.  It has now been integrated into the new trophy.  The trophy has also been revamped so that both the old and the new are represented.  All names are on the front of the trophy.  On the back, is the original list, now laminated to preserve.
