Hide Glue Source

Does anyone know of a source within the US of 195g and 315g hide glue?

Most vendors do not list strength ratings for their glue, others sell
the "bone" variety however I need the "hide" type glue in SMALL
quantities. (There are a few wholesalers out there who sell by the
truckload).

I bought 315g from Vitali Import Company in a relatively small (1/2
lb. bag I think) quantity, but I can't remember what other strengths
they had.
1-800-325-8154.

Lots of makers and restorers of stringed instruments. probably get a
number of sources.
