This saddle is built on a McClellan tree but has a nickle horn on it. The model 1913 mule saddle had a brass horn that was a little larger than this nickle one. There are no numbers or maker stamps that I,ve been able to find.Was told that it was a postmaster saddle.Has felt lined skirts.Anyone know what this saddle is? Have fenders but stirrup neathers were to far gone to save.post-5667-0-29211500-1366765253_thumb.jppost-5667-0-64456400-1366765283_thumb.jppost-5667-0-17686200-1366765318_thumb.jppost-5667-0-99185600-1366765352_thumb.jp

Never heard of a postmaster's saddle in all my study of military history but separate procurement arms are possible, I guess. At any rate, now to pure old guessing: I vote for some early catalog offering to appeal to those with cavalry experience. Maybe produced for JCP, MW, S&R others. Interesting.
