[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1758881, member: 42463"] Holy COW! I know times have changed, but that's a LOT of money. I had one tanned from a winter coated Holstein steer back in the early eighties when I was dirt poor... and it was cheap enough that I could easily afford it. I know it couldn't have been more than a couple of hundred bucks, and I suspect less than a hundred. Costs probably vary quite a bit depending on where you are and whether you can find an operation that does it in industrial quantities. I know you can buy one from Tandy Leather much cheaper than $800. I just looked at Tandy's website and they sell whole-hide, hair on, for $200. [/QUOTE]
