It they were raw hides he needed to have some help and used some stout spikes or horse shoe nails. Those hides are heavy. I see that hawk door ornament must have been a statement of your profession back in those days. He would be fined and put in jail now a days. www.jamesonsultrablend.com www.wildlifepestcontrolservices.com
