What Age Is This Simco?

[1nicesimco]

I have had this saddle for 17 years, fits my Arab great! Wondering when it was actually made? Anybody know?

I have modified it slightly, changed the concho's and put on black strings and solid black stirrup's

I showed in it for 5 years everything from western pleasure to reining, and use it all the time on the trails.

Any historians know anything about this style?

It is simular to the parade saddles of the 1960's but due to small skirt size I don't think it was marketed as a parade saddle.

The leather quality is great still and not old or tired looking at all.

Simco sent the catalog page but wouldn't say approx what year.

I am hoping to find out if it was made in the 50's, 60's or 70's

hopefully someone has some information.

Just contact Simco.

These were sold in the late 50's early 60's.

I have this saddle.  It belonged to my aunt.  She gave it to me when I got my pony in 1973.  She got it for Christmas in 1955-57.
