Featured in this lot is a Crockett Silver Mounted Clover horse bit and Half Breed bridle, circa 1930s. The bridle set up features a wonderfully and professionally crafted iron and silver mounted construction that shows a leather headstall with silver conchos. The bit is marked 'Crockett' and shows a silver mounted clover and tooled segment and the slobber bar is decorated with geometric patterns. The bit is a half breed that shows a high port and a wheel cricket; this is a great transitional bit for transitioning from other shank bits to a spade bridle bit. Crockett silver-mounted spurs are highly regarded among collectors and enthusiasts of Western memorabilia for their quality craftsmanship, distinctive designs, and historical significance. These spurs were produced by the Crockett Bit & Spur Company, a prominent maker of Western tack and accessories based in the United States. The Crockett Bit & Spur Company was founded in the early 20th century, around 1910, by Oscar Crockett in Pecos, Texas. The company later moved to Loveland, Colorado, where it became one of the most well-known and respected manufacturers of bits, spurs, and other Western gear. The condition of this Crockett bridle bit is well preserved with some oxidation to the iron and patina to the silver mounting that also shows some wear to the leather of the headstall, but otherwise it shows a well preserved condition. The measurements of this bridle are 28" x 7" x 2". The collective weight of this bridle is 2lb 6oz.*
