The bedroll was made from aged canvas with a wool blanket inside. This was the original I made for reference to sculpt the same thing in clay and had cast in bronze for a series I am doing called Saddles as Art, which will have 10 historical saddles in the series. Two have been completed in bronze, this one and the pony express. THANKS ALAN Edited November 23, 2008 by cowboysaddlemaker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
