Description
This is a brown leather cavalry saddle. The leather is in great condition as is the girth strap. The stippup irons are probably not both original because it appears they are made out of two differnt kind of metal. the rubber sturrip pads say "made in china" on the bottom. There is no year on the saddle plate but it says "The Julius J. Bantlin Co. Warranted Whitman Saddle re. us pat. off. Cincinnati OH
I did some research and it appears that Julius Bantlin had a leather store in Cincinnati OH at 425 Vine St. I couldn't find any mention of his store beore 1934.
