OKLAHOMA CITY -- Jay Villemarette said, "Some people would say that I am exaggerating when I say how greasy a human is. I am not exaggerating. It is nasty."
Villemarette would know. He's the founder of an Oklahoma City company that bills itself as the world's leading supplier of osteological specimens -- bones and skulls.
The former auto mechanic said he became fascinated with skulls in his youth, when he found a dog skull in some woods. He turned his hobby into a business in 1986, creating Skulls Unlimited in the kitchen of his home, boiling skulls on the family stove.
Almost all of the company's business in human bones comes from museums and educational groups, with prices starting at $349 for a human skull to $3,700 for a full skeleton.
The company also has a catalog and offers more than 70 types of animal skulls for sale. Villemarette can't foresee a day when he'd want to do anything else.
"I'm still having fun. I love what I do," he said.
