Vintage Traditional Breyer Chestnut Horse w Western Hand Tooled Leather Saddle

Description

THIS LISTING IS FOR THE TRADITIONAL SIZE BREYER HORSE AND WESTERN TOOLED LEATHER SADDLE ONLY. MY DOLLS ARE
NOT
INCLUDED IN THIS LISTING.
This listing is for a vintage, traditional size, Breyer horse, model #59, plus a vintage, tan, hand tooled, leather, Western saddle, sized for a Traditional size Breyer horse. The Breyer horse, model #59 is a Morganglanz chestnut produced between 1980-1987. The Breyer traditional line measures 12" L x 9" H. This model was originally sculpted by Chris Hess. The horse is used but in excellent condition overall with only minor marks and rubs. (See photos). The Western, hand tooled, leather saddle was made exclusively by Miles Kimble for Breyer in the 1970s. It is of quality construction and the detailing is beautiful. Beneath the saddle is a faux sheepskin lining. This is a hard to find item today. I bought this saddle on eBay several years ago and it will come to you "as is" and "as originally purchased". I have never had occasion to use it, so it has always been stored away. I would describe it as in "very good used condition". As I look at the saddle, I can
only
see two potential flaws. There are two circular shaped darkened areas on either side of the saddle horn. At one time, there were probably two matching decorative 3/8" circles of leather attached here, each with trailing, thin strips of leather (or saddle strings). These would have matched the two which are found on the rear corners of the saddle (just behind the cantle). Please see photos for details
