| It is just the main part of the stirrup leathers on both saddles. That was the style of the times, even though the saddles were probably built fifty years apart.

| I'd thank it'd make it a whole lot easier to change the stirrup straps with it on top like that, I've changed a few in modern saddles, and sometimes it's just down right agrivatin tryin to put it up under there where ya can't see.

| I have an Donnelly Bros "form fitter" saddle made in the early 1900's in Billings MT, still usable, I have kept it inside since I have owned it. It has the original leather girth cinch with it. I got it from, who as I remember it, was the original owner. Anyone have any idea of the value? Or where I could sell it the best way. You can bet if you bucked out of it you would be one sore fella from the swells on it.

Was it either Miller Brothers or Fred Mueller? It seems that both of those saddlery catalogs were from Denver.
