My oh my! Some of those even look like they have a little age on them. And yes, original GS Garcia bits or spurs are about at the top of valuable collectible tack- way over my budget. But I do appreciate nonetheless. I have a few earlier California style spurs including one pair by Mike Morales- a contemporary of GS Garcia. What's kind of interesting to me is that the overall quality of current production metal and silver smithing of bits and spurs done in Mexico, like I mentioned with such brands as E Garcia and others, is still very high. I think they are trying to maintain a tradition and not just pumping out mass produced repro items as is the case with so much of the Chinese junk.
Another thing that's interesting, at least to me, is the crescent moon designs in many of the earlier California styles. I see that theme in a bunch of your bits. I think that design has historical roots dating clear back to the occupation of Spain by the Moors.
Anyway, thanks for sharing the great photos!
