When I read Craig's recent note about Kangaroo Pouch Leather being available
at Player Piano, I immediately called in and tried to order a few skins.  To
my disappointment, there is none presently available.  I agree with Craig
that this skin is outstanding from the toughness and leakage point of view.
About two years ago I purchased some from Player Piano and was very
impressed with the quality of the leather.  It was uniformly thin at .008 to
.010 and had a pretty red color to it - very distinctive.  The folks at
Player Piano said that they have an  order in with their supplier but is not
very hopeful that it will ever be delivered (order outstanding for 2 years!).

Best Regards,

Joe
