The rest of the year, The Fur Source is a wholesaler on West 29th Street, in the fur district. Through Sunday, Jan. 10th, they are selling top quality furs to the public at wholesale prices. Mink, shearlings, rabbit and other warm and stylish coats, jackets, hats, mufflers and more are at three midtown locations. When I say stylish, I mean it — some minks have laser-cut borders in the shape of roses on sleeves and hem. There are woven minks, sheared minks, mink earmuffs, and reversible coats, because you don’t want your fur on the outside when it rains.
The storefront at the southeast corner of 57th Street and 6th Ave., in the old Delta Airlines event space, is open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily through Jan. 10th. Two other locations — inside the New York Hilton and the the Omni — are open only until Sunday, Jan 3rd. There is no website, so call 888-896-4970 or email thefursource@aol.com, and tell them you read about it on The Big Apple on the Cheap.
