Double side silver mounted. Even the rowels have engraved silver on each spoke. These California style spurs show a little use but every thing about them is original and intact. The strap pins show a silver poppy design and a different type of flower is engraved in silver above and below the chap guard. The rest of the silver inlasy depicts a flowing leaf or frond design. These are trully magnificent Parade Spurs. We are asking $2000 for them and our price is firm.

These very rare spurs are marked: "Hamley&Co., Pendelton,OR". The design is very unusual in that it provides a rising crescent moon on the shank that is not only very attractive but also serves as a "chap guard". The engraving depicts "Hearts and Diamonds". Who could ask for more? (Love and Money). The outside strap pins are nicely covered with liberty dimes. The left spur has a 1911 dime and the right spur has a 1913 liberty dime. I don't know about you, but if I were making these spurs, I would use a nice new dime that really looks good. Oddly enough, the 1911 and 1913 era at the Hamlley Company had Mr. Mike Morales working in a small shop rented by Hamley, behind the main store, making bits and spurs. He started there in 1910. Only the ones made in this shop were ever marked with the Hamley logo. Hamley sold other spurs through their catalogue but they were always marked with the suppliers" normal spur markings. Maybe you can see where I'm going with this---I believe these were made by Mike Morales or one of his apprentices, under the guidance or supervision of Mr. Morales, around 1913. It is well kown that he started working at Hamley in 1910. Eventually the Hamley company allowed Mr. Morales the right to also mark the spurs below the spur pin with an M for Morales (no M on these spurs). These spurs are well worn but are still in excellent condition. These spurs are made in one piece. Morales claimed to be the first to ever do this. SOLD

Beautiful Lone Star Spurs. Several crafstmen have copied the style of these spurs but few match the quality of these spurs. These particular spurs are very well used and have a few issues. The left spur has only one jingle bob remaining, both spurs are without heel chains, and the silver button on the side of the chap guards have been knocked off on both spurs. Most collectors can find jingle bobs that may come close to matching and spur chains are also available. The silver buttons can be replaced easily by a silversmith. We like them the way they are because they really were used by some cowboy and the wear shows it. Our price takes the issues mentioned into consideration. Our price is $950. SOLD

Single side mounted Les Garcia spurs. Les was the son of G.S. Garcia. Les and his brother Henry owned and operated the Garcia Saddlery Company in Salinas, California in the mid 1930s. Les was in charge of the Silversmithing work and employed several famous silver craftsmen. The spurs that sold by the company have come to be regarded very highly and are generally called "Les Garcia Spurs". These spurs are simply marked "GARCIA" and I purchased years ago in the Salinas area. You can look in Joyce Overton's 1997 book, "Cowboy Bits and Spurs, where these exact spurs are shown on pg. 91, which states that these spurs are Les Garcia spurs. Some spur scholars differ on how they were marked over the 20 plus years of operation but few differ as to who made these spurs. We have seen nor heard of any other company or craftsman who made this style spur. They are very rare and beautiful. $1200. SOLD

Single mounted spurs marked G S GARCIA inside right spur heelband and ELKO NEV. on the left inside heelband (see marks below). These spurs are $3200. They were probably made after 1910 since the "N" is correct. Spur picture

Single side silver mounted with fantastic engraving.These are California style spurs with no maker markings. They are in excellent condition.Our price is $1100. SOLD

Early California Transitional Spurs. Obviously handcrafted in the two-piece fashion. They have unique, original jingle bobs and the chains appear to also be the originals. You rarely find such fine classical spurs in this condition. These spurs are single (one side) silver mounted with silver inlay on the spur shanks and an overlay along the outside of the heel band. The heel band has sharp little points rising from the surface and the silver band has be placed over the points to give the spurs a flashy appearance even from a distance. Of course, with these jingle bobs, you would probably hear them coming before you saw them. The handcrafted heel chains are in perfect condition. These classic spurs are priced at $1200.

Buermann "Hand Forged Steel" Spurs. These spurs are well marked and in excellent condition with a great patina showing their age. Markings are imprinted below each strap pin: On one side is a "star" logo and the the letters Pat'd, on the other side also below the strap pin are the words "Hand Forged Steel". These spurs were listed in one of Buermann's older catalogs as #25 spurs. Buermann gave each design it's own number. You can view these spurs as they were in the catalog on the Cowboy Museum website. Go to www.cowboymuseum.org . These spurs are $450.

Buerman's most famous spur. The"OK" spur. A one piece design with 4 strap pins. This particular pair has seen a lot of use and the rowel holes are worn to huge porportions from spinning and rust. The spurs have a great deep rust patina. This spur was patented but the mark is not visable through the wear and rust. If you are a spur collector, these spurs are a "must have". These spurs represent what the real old-time cowboy wore and could afford. They are relatively rare and are the only "correct" pair we have ever had in our collection. $350.

ATTENTION BULL RIDERS Custom made Bull Rider spurs. These are old, professional Bull Rider spurs that have three overlay pieces of silver plated brass. The overlays are custom engraved with a "D" an "A" and a "T". They also have threaded holes for rowel pins, to keep the rowels from spinning during a ride. Note the additional, larger hole where boot tie-down wiring can be used if desired. These spurs are in great mechanical shape with hair-puller rowels. $350.

Very old Transitional, California Vaquero Spurs. Hand Forged. Each spur was made in two pieces and you can see where the shank and heel band join. All four "jingle bobs" match and are correct for the period. The outside of the heel band is "chased" and shows a wave pattern in two rows. The spurs have unusual chap guards, in that they are relatively flat in comparison with other spurs of the period. It appears that one of the rowels may have been replaced at some time in the distant past. You have to look close to see the difference in the rowels. Keep in mind that when these spurs were made, the rowels had to be individually made also. So, they could be both original in our opinion. Both heel chains are old but of different link designs. These spurs are very worn and represent some great Southwest history. They can be yours for $450. Where could you find another fine pair like these at this price?

Crockett Bronc Rider spurs.Marked "Crockett on bottom of each heel band. These are single-side mounted in silver, including the strap pin. A great pair of "heavy" spurs for show and tough work. $550. SOLD

Buermann straight shank spurs. Very early, late 1800's hand forged. Marked "PAT'D with Star symbol. $350

Buermann Star Steel Silver Spurs. These are large Buermann spurs -- 7inches overall length with 2inch rowels that haqve 17 rowel points. A very unusual number. These spurs show a lot of use especially at the center of the rowels, where spinning has caused them to wear the center hole larger. These are marked "Star Steel Silver" followed by a "star" logo. This is how Buermann marked their patented metal for making spurs. These magnificent, rare Buermanns spurs are $475.

Keith Welling, Gal Leg Spurs marked "KW".

Spur picture Note: the photo flash picked up some bronze like color. These are solid steel with silver inlay spurs and a little rust. No bronze or copper anywhere on them. Keith Welling started making bits andpurs in the 1960's in Crawford, Neb. His spurs are highly prized due to the fine silver inlay work. The price for these fine spurs is $600. SOLD

The

"DANDY" SPURS / SOLD
Double mounted silver inlayed. (showing both sides).Several makers made this style of spur. These spurrs were made by Eduardo Garcia. He offered them to us years ago as "Marded- EGARCIA, Unmarked, polished or oxidized (rust patina to make them look older) or blued. We We purchased these as polished and unmarked. These spurs are missing the heel chains (not unusual since most riders prefer them off because they are difficult to maintain when walking. We still have them and can reatach them if wanted). These spurs show some wear with a few nicks and dents since I wore them on occasion. We will accept offers for these great spurs. SOLD

CROCKETT SPURS
Large Crockett Spurs with chap guards. These are heavy, everyday user spurs. They make a great sound when riding.  I know, becuase I wore them here on the Circle S Ranch for a couple of years. I don't ride with spurs so much anymore since all my horses (4) are very well trained and they don't care for spurs so much. I do miss the sound of the
jingle/jangle of the rowels especially when I would get off the horse and walk around. The Crockett name doesn't always come out clear and readable but it is very clear on this set of spurs.
You can purchase these for $450. SOLD

Crockett Heart Pin spurs. Marked "Crockett on bottom of each heel band. The hearts are single-side mounted strap pins. A great pair of "heavy" spurs. SOLD

These spurs have it all! Drop Shank, chap guard, jingle bobs and heel chains. They are made for a small heel, so probably a lady's size or a youth pair. When we first found them, they were painted with gold gilt. Maybe a lady painted them to match a parade outfit. Anyway here they are after a lot of work getting the paint off. No maker's marks but show a great attention to detail. $300. SOLD
