Having just read your item I thought that The Leather Conservation
Centre, University College Campus, Boughton Green Road, Northampton,
England, NN2 7AN, may be worth contacting. Our regional Conservators
group had a meeting there last week and found the staff friendly,
informal and very knowledgeable. They don't appear to have E-Mail
but they do have fax +44 1604 719649
