Default bear hide ?

When I shoot a blackie this fall I want to use the hide as a throw over one of the chairs in my reloading room. I don't think I want to tackle the job of tanning myself and was wondering approximately what it'll cost to have a pro do it.

ps - I'd like to leave the claws in if that makes any diff.

thanks,


Brett
