Fiebing, operating on a very limited budget and a vision, started the Fiebing Chemical Company in 1895 after working in the chemical department of Pfister & Vogel. At that particular time in history, Milwaukee was one of the best cities to start a leather care company as Milwaukee was built on the fact that it was the center for buying, selling and trading various items to the areas Indians for furs and then transported them to places such as Mackinac and Detroit. As time passed, more and more people settled where the Milwaukee River spilled into Lake Michigan. Many of the people settling in Milwaukee, like John Fiebing, came from Germany. One of the first products Fiebing manufactured was Saddle Soap. The Saddle Soap soon became so popular that the U.S. Cavalry at Fort Riley, Kansas was using great quantities of it to clean and preserve their saddles, tack and other leather equipment. Fiebing products became so familiar with the Cavalry that the company logo portrayed a mounted Cavalryman, a logo that stands to this day. In the early 1900's the demand for quality horse care and saddle care products was booming as the horse was the main mode of transportation throughout the country. Almost all working horses were equipped with leather harnesses and leather saddles, all required constant care. This also opened the opportunity for horse care products such as Hoof Dressing, which has been a staple for a century. The Fiebing Company has grown to become one of the largest manufacturers of Leather Dye in the world. The Leather Dyes and Finishes are used by saddle makers and Belt makers around the world. All of this led into the variety of polishes, cleaners and conditioners that are currently manufactured at the original site. The Fiebing Company also owns the George J. Kelly Shoe Polish Company and the Snow Proof Company and all of these products are manufactured in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. - ----------------------------------- from Michigan - ----------------------------------- - ---------------------- hist_text list info: http://www.xmission.com/~drudy/mtman/maillist.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2000 03:29:36 EST From: GazeingCyot@cs.com Subject: Re: MtMan-List: The archives John you don't know the meaning of Courtesy: Jumpin on people for askin a question and others for answerin it ain't countess just because it had been talk bout once before does not mean it cannot and should not be revisited, so something else maybe added.

Klahowya Hawk, You ask far too many questions to be answered in one sentence, but here goes... No I am not a member, Yes I was asked years ago, No I did not accept at that time. I have already explained that I was not very impressed by the first AMM members I experienced, but opinions and levels of wisdom change. I apologize for even raising the membership question, I see now that it was in poor taste on my part. My post was intended to respond to a previous post which I perceived to be condescending to another concerning revisiting history. The thread developed and has now taken two lines. The discussion then continued with posts concerning accuracy in historical reenacting, the responsibility of reenactors to decide on a level of authenticity, strive for that goal, and admit to themselves and others as to that level. In short, There is room for all of us in the way of life. Some participate to learn the skills only, some participate because they like to play dress up, and some strive to recreate history as accurately as is possible given there level of research. All are OK, but each of us must be willing to admit which level we are at and not pass ourselves off as another. And yes you are right, I blew my own horn for a while, but then I have no intention of blowing someone else's. I enjoy listening to them make there own kinds of beautiful music. - ---------------------- hist_text list info: http://www.xmission.com/~drudy/mtman/maillist.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2000 09:48:19 -0600 From: Jim Lindberg Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Turkey Call Life in the city, I've mentioned the wildlife I've seen from my office before (white-tailed deer, bald eagles, ducks, geese, fox), I can now add turkeys to that list.

Read them. Crazy Cyot replied: I did not know when I came on this list that I had to study the archives before I could try help someone with a question or study all the archives before asking a question. Gentlemen: It sounds to me like we could use a FAQ--a list of Frequently-Asked Questions, accompanied by links to their answers in the archives. New list members could receive the FAQ as soon as they sign up, or be politely referred to the FAQ if they ask a question that's on it. (I checked with Dean Rudy, our list owner, and compiling a FAQ is okay with him.) The FAQ wouldn't be the end of the discussion on the questions, but rather, would keep people like John Kramer (and me, come to think of it) from having to answer the same question over and over again. It won't happen, though, unless we get a number of people (8-10) to volunteer to be compilers. That way, each compiler would only have to take a piece of our rather large archives. John Kramer? Laura Rugel Glise? Crazy Cyot? Lee Newbill? This could be a chance to make a substantial contribution to the list. I'm willing to coordinate the whole thing, or pass it on to somebody with more time and/or experience.

I was made to feel at home by all members there. They are a friendly group. I`ve stayed in the AMM camp at Mississinewa. I ate their food and pulled from there jugs. I brought things to share also. I was a guest of Dennis M. I ask question about my gear. The inappropriate things were left at home or were changed to meet their standards. Not a problem on my part. A friend and my self were invited back by ALL members in the camp. If we had done wrong we would of been corrected by our host. Members in the camp never criticized or condemned us to my knowledge. When others were ask their opinion about anything, foods, gear, clothing, ect, ect, they gave polite answers to help us. As we talked on subjects that we knew nothing about we were shown how to do various things by anyone we talked to. I`m sure there are grumpy and rude members as in ANY OTHER group, I`ve never seen or met one yet. I`m not an AMM member. Do to circumstances beyond my control at this time I wouldn`t be able to meet their obligations for membership. I wouldn`t want to ask for membership and then let down my sponsors, their good friends. My opinion!!!! If my gear is correct enough to go into an AMM camp then I will be correct enough for ANY CAMP of the fur trade time period. Nuff sed.

We are trying to display some of the material culture of the mountain man, specifically items that haven't survived but we know existed. The display has come along very nicely, and the vast majority of it are items made by AMM members. If you're ever out that way, check it out. Some beautiful country and right in the heart of the Horse Creek/Green River rendezvous area. Fort Nonsense is very nearby as well.

Crazy, Don't fall into the trap that so many others have; we've lost some great people like you because of the sometimes thoughtless words of a few (the same ones who seem to have the talent to make people feel unknowledgable, unwelcome or unqualified to join the AMM). This is not the majority. I am not in the AMM, but can tell you after having been on the ground with them at Rendezvous, most of them will help you with any aspect of the culture you need, and as was said about John, will protect your back at all costs whent the chips are down. Some of these 'boys' forget they too were green once, and that they must have asked some questions that had already been answered a hundred times before. Your posts are well thought out and presented, and are appreciated by more of us than not. Looking forward to seeing more of your input to the list.
