@KingsCountyLeather Do you have any photos of what they have left?

From what I saw... photos wouldn’t help you decide to buy anything. It was a very large warehouse that had pallets of leather thrown in a disorderly way on the floor and on the first floor were pallets on wall racks with some order to the hides as in colour and styles (swade, embossed, printed, etc.) it all had a bit of a musty smell as it has laid there for around 17 years, but they all looked in good condition.

That wasn't Boyd Rankin was it by any chance?

That name hasn’t come up anywhere? Who is he?

Age and smell might cause you to pause... understand the condition prior to purchase, so you don't end up with useless material.

Boyd and his wife Lynne are Irish Arms [in Cavan afaik]. They have made the equipment for the film  'Arthur', some for 'Braveheart' , 'Vikings' and lots of other major medieval & historic films and programmes

He's likely to have been the person who bought that leather.
