content: SKIN OF A DOG WITH FUR ON. HOLES AT HEAD SEWN TOGETHER. SHOULDERS MENDED IN BLACK THREAD. HAIR IS WHITE/GRAY/RED-BROWN. PROBABLY OF HUSKIE-SLED DOG. PAWS MISSING. METAL STAPLES AT HEAD. FROM THE COLLECTOR: "...A BLACK (?) DOG SKIN, THAT'S NOT BLACK POLAR BEAR, IT'S PLAIN DOG AND IT IS VERY WARM AND FINE. THEY USE THOSE FOR SMALL RUGS FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES. THEY LAST WELL, AND USED FOR DIFFERENT THINGS BUT THEY DON'T USE DOGSKIN FOR GARMENTS. THEY DO USE DOGSKIN AS LINER FOR BOOTS TO BE WORN OUTSIDE."
