Goodwear A-1 on eBay

[MACAnimal]

Pristine looking Goodwear A-1 on eBay #152344119029. Claims to be "capeskin" (?) Is that some propriety moniker? Goodwear a high-end manufacture? Size 42. $300 as this writing. Good deal? Your thoughts..........................

Capeskin is a type of leather similar to sheep skin. Here it is. It looks like a custom job 40 - 42 with the length only 23.75". There is a reserve so the $300 is a moot point. 25 bids.

FYI - Headwind Mfg. Co. DEC5 sale. I can make you one for $350. Excuse the highjack just thought it was very relevant in this case.

The skins started out that way, they were pre distressed in some way.
