Any one recognizes these skis?

Hi all, a flying friend of mine passed away a while back, and I'm helping his widow sell off his flying stuff. We came across this set of skis, possibly home built. They might have been built by a guy in northern Mn, who was making fiberglass Tuff floats. Not sure though. At any rate, they look well built and will be for sale. They measure 6' long and are 16" wide. JImChuk

Well we found a tail ski that probably went with these skis I posted earlier. JImChuk

I got some more info on these skis today. A guy named Keith Holton from Cloquet Mn was building them, for Super cub sized airplanes. Anyone having interest in buying them, let me know. Tail wheel ski included. JImChuk

PS I tracked down the builder of these skis today, and he said they should work on airplanes between 1500 and 3000 lbs. We will sell them for $1500 for skis and tail ski as shown in the pictures. Thanks, Jim
