Members Janmaderroberts Posted November 3, 2016 Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 I bought at auction a lot of leather supplies when Whitman Leather Co of Cintinnati Oh retired and closed its doors. I had no idea how much I had actually won in the auction as it was online only and pictured rolls of leather. I am interested in selling a lot of this stock but am a little overwhelmed with the amount of everything. They made premium saddles, as well as other horse/tack products and many many different types of gear belts and accessories for the Ohio police and fire departments. If you're interested in seeing pics of what I have or if you'd be interested setting a time to come see message me and I'll try to answer any questions. Quote

Members Janmaderroberts Posted November 3, 2016 Author Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 I will. Like I said I'm a little overwhelmed. I've got lots of pre dyed in various thicknesses huge pcs some look like double shoulders some look like full centers. Images are difficult because most thatbontook exceed the limits for the site. Have big rolls of Bonnitex too Quote

Members thunter9 Posted November 3, 2016 Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 you bought the pallets of hardware Quote
Members Janmaderroberts Posted November 3, 2016 Author Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 Thank you! For the most part yes. I search sites until I find things if I'm not sure of the names of items. It was an entire stock room of rivets snaps clips buckles clasps tons unopened and tons in open boxes. They only pictured a fraction of what was in the lot. Quote
Members thunter9 Posted November 3, 2016 Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 I think some of that stuff after its been here a while I would think you could contact a finding company. big enough one might just buy it all if the price was right . just give us a chance first Quote

Members CaptQuirk Posted November 3, 2016 Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 Do you have any veg tanned leather? Any idea of the weights? Quote
Members Janmaderroberts Posted November 3, 2016 Author Members Report Posted November 3, 2016 I use the veg tanned which is why I bid on the lot and there wasn't much. I do have a ton of scrap veg tanned of various thickness. Most in lot is saddle leather around 4-5mm maybe 5-6mm and thicker brown probably 7-8/8-9mm. Quote
