Quality hand-made used Saddles, Spurs and Collectables
|

We can preserve some of the way of the cowboy life by collecting and caring for some of the old Cowboy equipment whenever we are lucky enough to find it. It is becoming very scarce and difficult to find at all today, and there are reasons for that. Many collectors have realized that we are seeing an end to the Cowboy Era, and they are stepping up efforts to find the items while they are still available. Many American Cowboy items are also being shipped out of this country to overseas as the craze to own Cowboy Americana broadens. While it is true that there are new pieces being built today, especially in Mexico, there is hardly a comparison to be made between the contemporary Cowboy bits and spurs, and the work of the old Master Bit and Spurmakers. The old Masters should be viewed with the same respect as we view the old Master Artist of oil painting. Those who take an old spur, boot, saddle or any memorablia, into their hands should consider how that particular piece was hand forged from molten metal, painstaking patience tooling the leather, intricate designs of "Paisley" and "Lace," all accomplished with crudely made hand-held tools and chisel. All this should help us appreciate that the Masters were certainly on equal footing with the old Masters in oil.
