Johanna Report post Posted November 5, 2008 (edited) I just got off the phone with Dan Preston, publisher of Shop Talk, the magazine for those in the leather business. He offered to send anyone from this site a complimentary issue if they email or call the office 540-434-9845 and request one and mention that you heard about the offer here on Leatherworker.net. This magazine is chock full of informative articles, ads for suppliers, interesting things to know and sales, deals and what's going on in Leather Land. You will probably want to subscribe- and if you do, please tell them Johanna sent you. Thank you Dan, for doing this for our folks!

ClayB Report post Posted November 5, 2008 I had the same issue with the email. I sent it again with the one you posted. What a generous offer from these folks. I hope they get a good response. Johanna has been pestering me for a long time to check them out, guess I'll finally do it. Thanks for making it so easy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elton Joorisity Report post Posted November 5, 2008 Shop Talk is a great magazine. The advertisers are great reputable companies that can cater to every sector of the leather trades. Hard to find tools and supplies are advertised in most every issue. The annual "Big Book" is worth its weight in gold in my mind. It lists suppliers for pretty much any thing needed or wanted for anyone's leather shop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kustom Report post Posted August 18, 2009 Some how I missed this old thread and found the free offer on my own when I went to check on getting a subscription. Anyway, this offer is still going on, they're mailing mine today. So go get yours if you haven't already. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spence Report post Posted August 18, 2009 Someday, I'm going to learn to look at the date that something is posted. It was only after I sent my email in and read down to "Kustom's" post that I learned it was almost a year old. That they are still going to honor the offer is a feather in their cap, for sure.

Mike Craw Report post Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) If they send you the August 2009 issue, be sure to read the profile on Shelly in the "Women in Saddlemaking" article. It's a really nice interview with some photos of her saddles. Mike Edited August 18, 2009 by Mike Craw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
