About the studio
One artist. One standard. Three decades.
When you choose to have your trophy or reproduction done by Simpson Taxidermy Studio, you are dealing with me. I offer my clients high quality, detailed mounts, personal service, and a 10-year guarantee on materials and workmanship.
I have won numerous ribbons and awards in various state taxidermy competitions, including many 1st & 2nd place ribbons as well as several Best of Category and Master Division ribbons. These ribbons were earned in head-to-head competition against other taxidermists.
My tanning and fur dressing is sent to a reputable tannery that I have dealt with for over 20 years. I also send out any skulls for cleaning and bleaching to a specialist. Any cabinetwork, panels or Plexiglass cases are made by craftsmen I trust.
I am trying to keep my backlog from getting too long and to give my established clients a better level of service. I refuse to start cutting corners to speed up the turn-around time. This is a one-man studio and quality always comes first.

Guarantee of quality
10-year workmanship guarantee.
I stand behind my work and will repair, at NO cost to you, any defect in my workmanship, in any mount I have done, for a period of 10 years from the date you pick up the mount. Covered problems include paint or finish issues, grease bleeding, cracking on the show side of fish, separation of the skin at the seams, and similar workmanship faults.
Mounts must be hung in a normal living environment and reasonably well cared for. Mounts placed in basements, bathrooms, boathouses, un-heated cabins, garages or outdoors are not covered.
Guarantee of satisfaction
You will never take a mount home you are not proud to show your friends.
I guarantee that you will be pleased with any mount I do for you. If upon picking up your mount you are NOT happy, for any reason, you have a choice between a refund of all money that you have paid or a replacement mount.

Why call ahead?
