I found the following online: Harold F. “Jackie” “Tag” “Tiny” Shields, 86 yrs., of Tuscarora, Juniata County, Pennsylvania, passed away at 1:30 p.m., Sunday, April 9, 2017 in Tuscarora. The obituary also has the following: Shortly after Harold’s retirement, D.D. Adams taught him how to make friction turkey calls. Harold will be long remembered for making and selling the “Tuscarora Legend Turkey Calls.” Hope this may help.

Yes Harold Shields had help build calls, but back in the 1980's DD Adams sold the right's for his calls to Quaker Boy Calls. His son-in-law Earl Ritzman & wife Cindy(daughter of DD) have sold under and have been Tuscarora Legend Turkey Calls. Harold worked and helped make the calls.
