thing wrong.
1t takes four sealskins to make a fash.
ionable coat. Alaska seals caught on the
Islands Of ST. Paul and St. George, the
coolest climate in the world, are the best.
The pelt is tough, the fur dense and
handsome, and the average cost is $40
each; while those caught on the coast OF
China, Japan, Lobos Island and North
west Coast can be purchased for less than
half on an average. The pelt is not as
strong as the Alaska, the fur less dense,
therefore not as durable. The Alaska
Sealskins and those caught elsewhere are
dyed, in London, and it takes a good
Judge to tell the difference when made
into garments. They are, however, all
advertised as Alaska Seals by that class
OF merchants who deal in everything
under the sun.
1t is easy to advertise an Alaska Seal
skin coat London dyed, worth 5000, for
1925, when it is made from China, Lobos
or Northwest Coast Seal.
Is it possible to sell coat for S125,
made from four Alaska Seaskins which
cost $40 each, exclusive Of the cost OF
making, lining and finishing?
A China, Japan or Northwest Coast
Seal coat can be sold for 800, 1928
and $3.50, whereas an Alaska seal coat
would cost double the amount An
Alaska Sealskin will wear from ten to
fifteen wears. whereas a coat made from
