>I like sitting on my porch in the morning, drinking too much coffee and
>looking through horse magazines and catalogs. I came across one of the
>original ads for the Sports saddle in a 1991 issue of Western Horseman.
>It's a full color ad with a man galloping in well balanced form on a gray
>horse outfitted with a white ss. There are 6 pictures of the saddle in
>bright colors (somesort of synthetic covering looks very satin-like) One is
>listed as "endurance" and one "genuine leather" covered. The style is
>subtly different, more like the "Tex Lowe" model.
>More importantly, the price is $295.00 plus $25.00 packaging and shipping.
>Counting on my fingers, I was able to determine that this was only nine
>years ago and in that time the price has gone up $600.00!
>These smooth (they don't look suede) synthetic saddles would be a real
>option for those of us eager to try the system, but short on cash. Does
>anyone else remember these ads? I remember being completely intrigued by
>them when they first came out. The leather covered one is brown with dark
>stitching. It's very handsome!
>Also the ad claims that the saddle needs no blanket or pad and is completely
>washable!
>It's simply called "Sports Saddle Inc" The address for "the full color
>catalog" is Route 2 Box 306B Salem Kentucky 42078
