Oslo 19540123. Minkskin auction. Minkskin smells of money. At Oslo Skin Auctions S/L, experts come from the large import houses abroad. Leather for several million kroner will be traded. The leather bundles are composed of uniform leather by gender, quality, color and size. At least 80 skins go to the mink laundry. The breakfast is the most expensive and costs about NOK 25,000.
