     The Chappell family has decided to sell remaining inventory including leather, tools, thread, machinery, etc. from the Chappell Boot School.  This follows the passing of Carl Chappell who taught many students how to make boots over the years.  He bought and sold machinery and refurbished it for his students and others who needed something for their shop.  He accumulated lots of equipment which will be offered at auction on September 29th, and 30th.  After this event will be the Wichita Falls Boot and Saddle Makers Round Up which we encourage you to stay and visit for the weekend.  It is not far and our company's Moser Leather Division will have a booth there.  There are hotels for the Chappell event in nearby Nacona, Texas such as the Veranda Inn at 940-825-5111 for $107.35 with tax on up or Red River Station for $115.00 on up per night plus tax at 940-232-7031.
