Re: Authentic Gumblanket

I asked the same question a couple of days ago. Most venders are out right now. I was directed towards Jan Berger with Leder Arsenal. I have been exchanging emails with him but he is in Germany and I think he is asleep now with the time difference.
His website is in the approved vendors list and he has quite a selection of a lot of stuff including gum blankets.Louis Zenti

Re: Authentic Gumblanket
I second the recommendation for Leder Arsenal, but only if you don't need it right away. As of this week, the arrival time to the states is about 4 weeks. His gum blanket is phenomenal!! Also, I recommend you watch the exchange rate between the dollar and the Euro, and see if it goes down any. His prices are in Euros (80 euros for the gum blanket) with the exchange it comes to about $104. Once again, i highly recommend Leder Arsenal!Your Humble Servant,
