Chessex _used_ to make them in clear plastic, because that's the
Chessex Dragonskin that I got to protect the cover on my Werewolf: the
Apocalypse Second Edition book. (Die cut claw marks through the front
cover sure make a book look cool, but that's where the book wears out
first.)

Keep checking around, I'm sure retailers have back-stock of this
stuff. I know I bought a SR Dragonskin just last fall. Even though the
manufacturer stopped making them, I'm sure both the clear and SR logo
dragonskins are still available to buy if you hunt for them.
