They're worth 100.00 to 175.00 depending on the buyer. Other than that they are a collectible! They do look cool though! (grin)

Go to stickbow.com and click on the leather wall. Post those same pictures. All the guys over there will go bananas seeing those. You'll get more info on them than you'll be able to stand. They look really nice.
