Featured in this lot is a pair of Al Furstnow Batwing Leather Chaps from Miles City, Montana, circa early 1900's. Al Furstnow departed the Omaha, Nebraska saddlery of J.S. Collins in 1885 and began working in Miles City, Montana for both the Moran Bros. and Robbins & Lenoir saddleries. By 1894 he started his own business, Al. Furstnow, which lasted only five months before he formed a partnership with Charls Coggshall, and the firm was known as Furstnow & Coggshall Saddlery. After the demise of Furstnow & Coggshall, Albert Frank Furstnow established his own business, Al. Furstnow Saddlery, in Miles City, Montana in 1899. These vintage chaps feature conchos down each leg and a floral tooling design on the belt. They are in good condition and measure 40" (including belt) by 15.5".
