jowen2197 Report post Posted August 10, 2021 Hi everyone I have these two saddles that were passed down to me and I was looking to see if someone can help me identify them or help me find the worth? The saddles belonged to my great gpa so I think they are from around the 1930s. Any info is appreciated. Thank you! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheilajeanne Report post Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) jowen, uploading videos off site usually results in links that don't work anymore after several years. Do you have Windows Paint on your computer? It's a standard feature on all Microsoft computers. It should be there even if you've never used it. If so, it's dead simple to resize the picture yourself. Open it in Paint, and you will see a tab that says "Resize picture'. Click on that then select either percentage or pixels. I do pixels, and pick a size that's around 500 pixels. If you resize the one dimension, the other will automatically resize to keep the picture in correct proportion. If you want to keep the original photo, you must give the new one a new name. Select 'save as' in the 'File' menu and give it a new title. Then you should be able to post the new picture here!

Sheilajeanne Report post Posted August 11, 2021 That's some very nice tooling! So there are no initials, names or numbers anywhere that might identify the makers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldshot Ron Report post Posted August 11, 2021 What type of fleece is on the saddles: real wool, or imitation? What are the rigging plates made of: brass, stainless steel, or aluminum, or plated steel? Just looking at the stamping on the second photo looks like a saddle from the late to early 1960's. The first saddle could be older, but we still need to see more photos. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
