Also it occurs to me that most, if not all, B&H castings are marked with B&H...
Bradley & Hubbard?
Seems reasonable, but both those examples zoom to exactly the same physical (screen) size...on my machine, anyway.
Yeah...depending on the specific material, its thickness, whether tanned or rawhide & etc...an' whether the crafter used gloves or was heavily...
Ahhh...Thanks! I had erroneously assumed that they were (roughly) equivalent. Now, to discover how to fit lots more pixels into a megabyte....
This has puzzled me since I first joined our forum. How is it that some members can post pics that zoom way more than really necessary, but a...
Me, too...but then I read 4 oz each. That would be a large operculum with an appropriately humongous gastropod behind it...South Pacific, maybe?

The last 5 pics here are of a leaf that was split, allowing me to remove it from the binding string to get clearer shots of all 4 quarters. If...

Wonderfully informative, Peggy...Thanks!
Thank you most sincerely, AJ... I read that linked thread, all 9 pages of it. I'm amazed, of course, at not only the profound depth of your...
