Bartlett Pear Tree Propagation (IL)

I have a wonderful Bartlett Pear Tree. It is a great fruit bearer. It is also very old and very big ( the largest I have ever seen). I would like to get a way to start another tree from this tree. Is that possible? If so how?

Greetings Marcy:

Even though this is a horticulture question, I'll help steer you in the right direction regarding tree propagation from cuttings:
