[RC] OT - Antique Saddles - Aaron Turnage

In trying to raise money to purchase a NEW saddle, I'm
thinking of selling an antique saddle I have.  The
problem is I don't have any information about it to
estimate it's value.  Does anyone know where I can go
to find some info about this saddle?

Here's what I DO know:
This is an English type saddle with a forward-seat.
Appears to maybe be an old calvary saddle.
Saddle has two dates on it.  1919 is stamped on the
left panel near the bottom and 1928 is stamped on the
rear of the cantle next to an insignia bearing the
words "Otto Sinclair, Berlin" above and below it.

Remarkably, this saddle is still in good condition.  I
have even ridden in it for an hour or so.  I just
don't trust it for long rides or regular use.
