Marking on the saddle - look at the pictures. Used western saddle - I have not cleaned it up - Moved to Sheridan, Wyoming in 1900 and opened up his saddlery with John Buckley (Ernst-Buckley) in 1902.
Ernst became the sole owner in 1907 - tree is good - fenders are good with the leather lace adjustment for length - stirrups are the old wooden ones with galvanized wrap - wool or pading on the under side needs replaced - skirts look good - leather shows it age (but still good and usable with little cleaning and oiling) - it does not have a padded seat- I do not know the age - look at pictures for measurments. LOOK CLOSELY AT THE PICTURES FOR CONDITION AND ANY DEFECTS.
