Single mounted spurs marked G S GARCIA inside right spur heelband and ELKO NEV. on the left inside heelband (see marks below). These spurs were probably made after 1910 since the "N" is correct. Please email us if you wish to make a reasonable offer on these classic spurs.
The spurs show some wear especially inside the heel bands. The "O" in ELKO has mostly worn off . These were in our tack room (in our horse barn) for many years and some rust and pitting has occured on the iron surfaces.

These are North & Judd's "Plains Spurs" with the two pins for the spurs straps on each side of the spur. These are not the showy kind of spurs you wear when you ride to town.  These were very common "working cowboy" spurs that were affordable and worn where no one cared about how they looked.

Deer Lodge Spurs.  These spurs are attributed to being made by prisoners at the Deer Lodge Montana Prison. Rather than making the shank look like a goose neck, the maker attempted to make it look like a snake.  These double mounted spurs show the exact same engraving style used on other Deer lodge spurs as depicted in Joyce Overton's book "Cowboy Bits and Spurs".

McChesney No. 70 spurs. Click on the image to see the beautiful detail on these great spurs. As a reference for these spurs, you can find them on page 120 of Lee C. Jacobs book "J.R. McChesney, A Lifetime, A Legacy". These spurs were probably made around the time McChesney was moving the operation to Nacona, TX. This is during the time McChesney first began making larger, heavier spurs to match Kelly and Crockett.  These are unmarked spurs and hence earlier than when they began marking McChesney spurs at the Nacona plant.

Marked "Hamley and CO, Pendleton, OR. Hamley started making their own spurs around 1910 using the following makers: (Mike Morales 1910-1914) (Manuel Delatorre 1914) (Irl W. Terry 1914-1926). Mike Morales always marked his spurs with an "M" so we guess these spurs were made by Manuel or Irl.  The silver engraving leaves a lot to be desired. Note the liberty head dimes mounted on the strap pins (one is 1913, other is 1911). Since these are the spurs I wear on the ranch, I'm not too interested in selling them so the price reflects my own personal value of these.

Old hand forged "shop made" spurs. These spurs are large and show some hammer and file work done when being made. Even the cutting of the bronze for the rowels show slight inconsistencies not found in mass-manufacturing. One rowel point has broken off. This could be relaced. These are great old Texas spurs. Please email us if you have any feedback on who the maker may have been.

"DANDY" spurs. These famous spurs are unmarked, show some wear and a little damage. We have shown both mounted sides of the spurs so you can see that a piece of silver on the tip of one of the chap quards is missing. We have not polished or cleaned these spurs but they would be really great if polished. We have not attributed a maker for these spurs as we are not experts on engravers but the workmanship is worthy of whomever the "master" was. If you can identify the maker, please email us your opinion.  See Page 77 of Joyce Overton's book "Cowboy Bits and Spurs".
