Extracts from Saddlery and Harness, “The Recognised Organ of the English Saddlery Trade” Extracts from Saddlery and Harness, “The Recognised Organ of the English Saddlery Trade” `Saddlery and Harness` was a monthly trade journal published by T.Kirby and Sons of Bradford Street, Walsall from July 1891 onwards. Its stated aim was to become “ the authorised and duly- acknowledged organ of the Saddlery and Harness Trades, which, although of universal extent, are admitted to have their chief seat in Walsall; at the same time attention will be given to the claims of other manufacturing centres.” In this it was successful: it quickly became the accepted journal of the trade, and despite a strong bias towards Walsall it regularly included articles about other centres of the trade, and letters from saddlers thoughout the country. During the period 1899-1910 two major developments dominated the Journal. The first, the progress of the motor car and its impact on the various horse- related trades, is a recurring theme throughout the period. The second major event, the Boer War and its immediate aftermath, dominates the years between 1899 -1903. Unfortunately the Leather Museum`s run of `Saddlery and Harness` is incomplete for this period. These extracts also include notes made from copies of the Journal preserved at Walsall Local History Centre (these are indicated by the initials `WLHC`). Jan. 1899 p.7 Brace Windle Blyth and Co, riding saddle manufacturers, harness makers, bridle cutters and general saddler`s ironmongers have purchased the old est. firm of Charles Mansell, 96 Lionel Street, Birmingham. p.7 Ad for John Hawley and Co, mfrs of ropes, twines, and waterproof oil canvas, halters, plough reins, tarred threads, saddlers hemps, whip cords, bus aprons, cab cloths, stable clothing etc. Goodall Street, Walsall. p. 9 Messrs R Loveday and Sons collar mfrs of Islip, Thrapston and Algernon Street Walsall, splendid display of collars at a recent Walsall Trades Industrial Exhibition. p.11 article re Messrs Adams Brothers of Crewkerne in Somerset. Notes that the tanning industry has largely relocated from the West of England to the North. The tannery was est. 50 years ago. Use only the finest hides and pure English oak bark. The currying part of the business is carried out in a building over 100 feet long, heated by steam pipes and the air circulated by a fan. All the machinery is driven by a Tangye engine. Entire process of tanning and currying takes over a year [cf Handford Greatrex, 13 months]. The dressing takes place on marble tables, the old mahogany tables having been superseded. p.18 review of the past year`s trade. Harness trade has been good, but the brown saddle trade has been very slack for practically the whole year. Many workmen on short time or out of work. Partly due to the rise of the cycle trade - one rarely sees professional or other gentlemen on horseback, as used to be the case. Walsall saddlers have been slack in taking up the cycle saddle trade. However purse, pocket book makers and the fancy leather trades have been busy all year. p.22 ad for B. Cope`s patent safety stirrup p.22 ad for Hawley and Smith, Hall Lane Works, Walsall, `saddlery brush manufacturers` p.27 Ad for Kirkpatrick and Co of Walsall, mfrs of harness room fittings.

Horse clippers and lamps, including regulation County Council lamps. Report of the Trade. Trade exceptionally good, the war in South Africa undoubtedly the main cause. The price of labour has increased. This has had a damaging effect on exports to other countries, as prices have increased. Likewise the home market, often difficult to secure supplies of goods [as mfrs concentrating on goods for S Africa]. p.6 War Office tenders invited for 10,000 horse collars, 20,000 leather aprons, toolbags and cases, and regular saddlery and harness. Quantities so great that the Woolwich Dockyard (where munitions are inspected) is having to be reorganised. The ships which have been used for the purpose for last 160 years are being removed. p.8 Death of Mr Charles Mountfort, saddler`s ironmonger of Walsall. Business is to be continued under the management of James Beebee for the benefit of Mountfort`s widow and children. p.11 State of Trade [Boer War] Birmingham. Business good. Messrs Middlemore and Lamplugh much engaged in War Office work, incl artillery harness, saddle flaps etc Walsall, “this town which may, without boast, be considered the saddlery metropolis of the world” has not seen such prosperity since the Franco- Prussian war of 30 years ago [1870- 71]. The home trade has had to be neglected. Everyone has been working up to full strength since last October. Several firms are extending their premises. Enormous wages are being achieved by journeymen, and many people have been attracted to the town as a result. Messrs Hampson and Scott making a large extension to their works. Main problem has been finding enough hands to carry out the work. Their new illustrated catalogue, to be entitled the `Equine Album`, was on the eve of being issued, but the firm wish to add additional pages so there may be a delay of a month or two. “We can safely say we have never seen a more complete work”. Messrs JABarnsby have been working overtime since last October, and have enough orders to keep them busy until Christmas. Trade both at home and abroad is `exceptionally brisk`. Messrs Leckie has had a great rush of orders since last October as a result of the Boer war. Trade has slackened a little, but still very busy. Messrs R Craddock and Sons of Wisemore, bridle bit mfrs, have been at it `hammer and tongs` to cope with War Office orders. They are now catching up on arrears of normal business. Ditto T Cresswell of Pool Street. p.13 Ad for Nicklin and Schofield harness mfrs. p.15 Saddle designed by Mr William Christie of Station Street, Walsall, with photos. p.25 Illustrations of Mexican saddlery, spurs etc. p.57 One page illustrated ad for William Overton and Co, lamps and clippers. June 1902 (Original at WLHC) Editorial p.3. The prospect of peace in South Africa. 90,000 lives lost, at a cost of £250 million- and this is just on the British side. p.4 Motors Lead to Business. Fears of the motor car have proved groundless. Messrs. ETHolden and Sons doing a considerable quantity of coloured cushion hides for motor cars. The same firm is also doing a lot of military lines especially hogskins for light goods eg leggings, purses and pocket books, as well as saddlery. Fancy japanned leather is being produced for the forthcoming Coronation celebrations. p.6 Mr James Homer has announced that as a consequence of the increase of his business due to the growing demand for his specialities he is compelled to increase his accommodation and has removed to more suitable premises at Mill Lane Saddlery Works, Butts, Walsall. p.6 Mr N Grant Chavasse of Walsall and trading as Latchford and Co, 59 St Martins Lane, London, has just received the Royal Warrant as loriner to HRH the Prince of Wales [the future King George V] . p.17 The Monarch Harness Hame, a combined harness hame and tug patented by Messrs Nicklin and Schofield of Walsall. p.21 Indian letter, Cawnpore, May 5th 1902, sent by JK Urquhart. “Cawnpore is to the Indian saddlery trade what Walsall is to the home. Here we turn out all sorts and conditions of saddlery”. Products include strapping for elephants and camels. The Indian trade has its difficulties. The climate is very bad for leather and it becomes very brittle. p.56 Bits, Forged and Otherwise. Discussions held at the Chamber of Commerce in Walsall to discuss the relative merits of hand forged and cast nickel bits. Contributions from Mr Eglington, Mr A Dewsbury, and Mr Scott. The latter stated that hand forging was a dying art “there was not one- fourth of the number of men employed now as ten years ago, and that one- fourth would diminish and vanish.” Mr Cope, Mr Wheway and Mr Clark also commented. Mr Cope thought that the production of steel bits had diminished as they were slightly more expensive and needed some trouble to keep the metal bright. Bits of other materials on the other hand were non-corrosive, cheap, but unreliable. p.56 Within the last month Walsall firms have received the following orders form the War Office: 31,000 bridles 15,000 breast plates 56,000 girths 34,000 reins 52,000 stirrups 15,500 saddles 28,000 rifle buckets 16,000 horse shoe cases 26,000 head collars “…and other articles” [total 273,500 items] p.59 Wolverhampton Industrial Exhibition Details of exhibitors.

  • Some Remarks on Urartian Horse Harnesses
    Some Remarks on Urartian Horse Harnesses Manuel Castelluccia and Roberto Dan 1. Introduction1 There is no doubt that metalwork production is the most distinguished aspect of Urartian art. This circumstance was certainly favoured by the presence in Urartian territory of rich deposits of metal ores (generally lacking in Mesopotamia), as well as important trade routes running from the Iranian plateau and the Cauca- sus. Ambition regarding the direct ownership and exploitation of these mineral deposits was certainly one of the main reasons for the conflict between Assyria and Urartu. The purpose of this study is to analyse the series of metal objects which can be considered components of horse harnesses. Items belonging to war-chariots are not included, since they will be the subject of a further specific study. This article —after a series of detailed studies— is devoted to a general review of Urartian metalwork production.2 The kingdom of Urartu expanded greatly in a rather brief period, between the 9th and 7th centuries BC. Notwithstanding this limited chronological span, the amount of metal artifacts ascribed to the Urartian culture is far larger than any other cultural sphere of the Ancient Near East, except probably the well-known and much discussed corpus of the “Luristan Bronzes”. Numerous studies have been devoted over the years to metalwork production and its artistic features; today this constitutes the most developed field of Urartian studies.3 Despite the richness of this specific literature, several problems still limit our understanding of Urartian metalwork production. These problems mainly depend on the lack of a sufficient number of well doc- umented excavation reports regarding Urartian sites.

    THROUGH ENGLAND ON A SIDE-SADDLE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Celia Fiennes | 96 pages | 02 Apr 2009 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141191072 | English | London, United Kingdom Sidesaddle - Wikipedia Ninth century depictions show a small footrest, or planchette added to the pillion. In Europe , the sidesaddle developed in part because of cultural norms which considered it unbecoming for a woman to straddle a horse while riding. This was initially conceived as a way to protect the hymen of aristocratic girls, and thus the appearance of their being virgins. However, women did ride horses and needed to be able to control their own horses, so there was a need for a saddle designed to allow control of the horse and modesty for the rider. The earliest functional "sidesaddle" was credited to Anne of Bohemia — The design made it difficult for a woman to both stay on and use the reins to control the horse, so the animal was usually led by another rider, sitting astride. The insecure design of the early sidesaddle also contributed to the popularity of the Palfrey , a smaller horse with smooth ambling gaits, as a suitable mount for women. A more practical design, developed in the 16th century, has been attributed to Catherine de' Medici. In her design, the rider sat facing forward, hooking her right leg around the pommel of the saddle with a horn added to the near side of the saddle to secure the rider's right knee. The footrest was replaced with a "slipper stirrup ", a leather-covered stirrup iron into which the rider's left foot was placed.

  • The Horse Collar (Edited from Wikipedia)
    The Horse Collar (Edited from Wikipedia) SUMMARY A horse collar is a part of a horse harness that is used to distribute the load around a horse's neck and shoulders when pulling a wagon or plough. The collar often supports and pads a pair of curved metal or wood pieces, called hames, to which the traces of the harness are attached. The collar allows the horse to use its full strength when pulling, essentially enabling the horse to push forward with its hindquarters into the collar. If wearing a yoke or a breastcollar, it had to pull with its less-powerful shoulders. The collar had another advantage over the yoke as it reduced pressure on the horse's windpipe. From the time of the invention of the horse collar, horses became more valuable for plowing and pulling. When the horse was harnessed in the collar, the horse could apply 50% more power to a task in a given time period than could an ox, due to the horse's greater speed. Additionally, horses generally have greater endurance than oxen, and thus can work more hours each day. The importance and value of horses as a resource for improving agricultural production increased accordingly. The horse collar was very important to the development of many areas of the world. Wherever oxen were used and could be replaced with horses, the use of horses boosted economies, and reduced reliance on subsistence farming. This allowed people more free time to take on specialized activities, and consequently to the development of early industry, education, and the arts in the rise of market-based towns.

  • Cavalry Equipment of the Roman Army in the First Century A.D
    Originally published in Coulston, J.C. (ed.) 1988: Military Equipment and the Identity of Roman Soldiers. Proceedings of the Fourth Roman Military Equipment Conference, BAR International Series 394, Oxford CAVALRY EQUIPMENT OF THE ROMAN ARMY IN THE FIRST CENTURY A.D. M.C. Bishop INTRODUCTION The main aim of this paper is to identify and describe the elements that went together to make up Roman military horse (or riding) harness in the first century A.D.1 Closely linked with this, however, will be a consideration of just how much the archaeological evidence can tell us about the military use of mounts.2 It is to be hoped that the present work will at least serve to generate new interest in cavalry equipment and provoke discussion about the functions of its various components. There are two main source areas for the study of Roman military horse equipment: monuments depicting its use and artefacts recovered from the archaeological record. Pictorial evidence, most notably that represented by sculpture, can be used to show how the various elements of horse harness functioned as a whole. The value of such depictions is hotly debated, but it is generally true that funerary monuments tend to give a more accurate picture than official sculpture, although both categories vary widely in quality.3 Two types of tombstone, the 'Reiter' and the 'Totenmahl' are characteristic of the first century A.D. (although not exclusively so):4 these show, in the first instance, the deceased cavalryman riding his mount in combat, often with a cowering barbarian being trampled beneath the horse;5 the other type depicts the dead man enjoying a funerary banquet in the afterlife in an upper scene, whilst his horse is paraded in all its equipment in a lower.6 Totenmahl depictions usually show the horse being controlled from behind by means of long-reins and with its saddle covered by an overblanket, whilst the trooper's calo carries spare spears (javelins?).
