Featured in this lot is this J.R. McChesney (1867-1928) stainless steel spurs, circa 1910. The spurs show single piece construction with five star rowels and the marker’s mark on the inside of the spur heel band.

He was born to Thomas Carvin and Rosetta Mattison McChesney on September 26, 1866, in South Bend, Indiana. The condition of these spurs is good for their age, with no obvious signs of damage. The measurements of these spurs are 6" x 4 1/2" x 1".
