In the old days of Empire, part of Britain's industrial success stemmed from the lucrative production and trade of quality leather book marks. The best leather material for this, apparently, came from dogs ears. The very thin leather found there has a decent tensile strength, flexibility and supple qualities that prevented damage to old thick-weave writing parchments.
