Members Mike Posted January 4, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 4, 2011 Ok, the patterns break down as follows: Pages are about 18 1/2" x 13", 20 pages total. Each page in the package is numbered. Pages 1,2,3,5 have 6 patterns for wallets, checkbooks and such. Page 4 is similar but has 5 patterns. Page 7 is a purse pattern, page 8 is a zipper purse. Pages 9 & 10 are cowboy portraits, Hollywood style. Page 11 has a pair of boot tops. Page 12 contains 6 holster patterns. (patterns for holsters not how to make a holster) Page 13 has a card case and picture. Page 14 has 5 pictures and a belt pattern. Pages 15 and 16 have rodeo scenes, 4 on p.15 and 3 on p. 16. Page 17 has a picture of a rider on a bucking bronco and a belt pattern. Page 18 is a guest book pattern and belt pattern. Pages 19 and 20 are for a guestbook with an 'archer'. The archer is on p. 19 and the floral background is on p. 20. Mike PS there is also a small pamphlet 'The Technique of Leather Carving for Students and Hobbyists. Pardon my mistake. Please correct the following: Page 7 is a purse pattern, page 8 is a zipper purse. to read: Page 6 is a purse pattern, page 7 is a zipper purse. Page 8 contains 13 flower patterns. Needless to say, there a lot of patterns.

Contributing Member Ferg Posted January 4, 2011 Contributing Member Report Posted January 4, 2011 If Ferg/50 Years Leather doesn't want it, I'll take it. Help your self. Seventy five dollars is a lot of money for those patterns. ferg
Members Spinner Posted January 4, 2011 Members Report Posted January 4, 2011 Don't have the money to buy the pattern pack but it looks like a pretty nice collection. In talking to Mike about it earlier today, I had to look Bob Brown up - pretty interesting guy and his client list was packed with all of the Hollywood Western leads of days gone by. I bet he had some stories to tell. http://www.geostan.ca/brown.html
Members K-Man Posted January 5, 2011 Members Report Posted January 5, 2011 ...Seventy five dollars is a lot of money for those patterns. ferg Depends on one's perspective. I've seen a lot of people spend $100+ on a holster I wouldn't give you $30 for. There's some patterns in that package that would be of benefit to me.
Members Mike Posted January 5, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 5, 2011 The Bob Brown pattern pack is SOLD.
