Does anyone know anything about the saddle-maker, Herman H Hauser (sp on last name)?
I was able to buy-back my Grandpa's saddle and when the bidding was over the 2nd man came over and said I "got a good one" - he was an antique saddle buyer ..... I was just buying back my Grandpa's saddle!! (which was sold at his estate sale when I was fairly young). With very little fixing it would be usable but I think I'll just leave it in it's corner display in my livingroom.
The man was proud of his work - there are 9 "HHH" stamps on it. The saddle collector said Hauser left California in the late 1800's - died in Germany in 1906 or there-a-bouts. I was never able to find how many he made or if he stuck with one particular style.
