About Nolan's Custom Taxidermy Studio

Nolan's Custom Taxidermy Studio operates in Pennsburg, a small borough in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, where hunting and outdoor traditions are part of everyday life. The studio takes a custom approach, meaning each mount is handled individually rather than treated as a production-line piece.

Taxidermy

Services & Process

Custom taxidermy work at this type of studio typically spans trophy shoulder mounts, full body mounts for deer, fox, or coyote, and detailed fish mounts using either original skin or fiberglass replicas. Bird work, including wild turkey fans and full body pheasant mounts, requires meticulous feather placement and color preservation to look natural. Habitat displays add a professional museum-quality finish by incorporating natural materials like driftwood, rocks, or artificial foliage around the mount. Skull cleaning and euro mounts are also popular, lower-cost options for hunters who want a clean display without a full cape.

Service Area

Nolan's Custom Taxidermy Studio serves clients throughout Pennsburg and the broader Upper Perkiomen Valley region of Montgomery County. Hunters from Green Lane, East Greenville, and surrounding communities find this location easy to reach without a long drive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'custom' taxidermy mean compared to standard taxidermy?
Custom taxidermy means the taxidermist works with you to choose the specific pose, expression, habitat elements, and finishing details for your mount. Standard shops may offer fewer pose options and less client input during the process.
Can I request a specific pose for my deer mount?
Yes, most custom studios offer a range of forms in different poses, from alert upright positions to aggressive sneak poses. Bringing a photo of the animal you harvested can help the taxidermist recreate a realistic and personal result.
Do you handle wild turkey mounts in Pennsylvania?
Wild turkey mounts are a popular request in this region. Options include full body mounts, strutting fan displays, and tail fan mounts, all of which require careful feather preservation and drying.
How do I know if my specimen is still in good enough condition to mount?
Bring or call the studio as soon as possible after harvest. A taxidermist can assess hide slippage, feather loss, or other damage and tell you honestly whether the specimen is still workable.
Can a taxidermist mount something that was damaged during the hunt?
Minor damage from a shot or field dressing can often be repaired during the mounting process. Significant hide damage, rot, or hair slippage is harder to correct, so quick preservation is always the best approach.
Is a euro skull mount a good option if I'm on a budget?
Euro mounts are significantly less expensive than full shoulder mounts and still make a great display piece. The skull is cleaned, whitened, and mounted on a panel or medallion for a clean, modern look.
