Question ID: 296653
Purchased a Nutria fur coat at a consignment shop for $25, and I think
it was quite a steal. The label in the coat reads, "Unfahrer Pelze
Nordlingen." German? Would like translation of those words, and if
possible, would also like to know whether this represents a retail
store, the furrier/manufacturer, etc. and where I could find contact
info.

Hello juls101,

You are correct -- this is German.  The actual words are "Umfahrer
Pelze Nördlingen".  "Umfahrer" is the name of the business (and the
surname of the man whom you can contact); "Pelze" means furs; and
"Nördlingen" is the town in Germany where this business is located. 
This business calls itself a "Kürschnermeister" -- a "master furrier".

You can see a listing for this furrier, as well as a link to a contact
form, on this page:

"Umfahrer Leder - Pelze - Hüte" [Umfahrer Leather - Furs - Hats]
