S. D. Myres Saddle Company Catalog, 1907 is a facsimile reprint of the original 1907 trade catalog published by the S. D. Myres Saddle Company, one of the most celebrated and historically significant saddleries in the American West. Sam D. Myres began his saddlemaking career in Sweetwater, Texas before establishing his company in Pecos, Texas, where he built a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship that would eventually attract the business of some of the most famous figures in Western history — including Buffalo Bill Cody, Pat Garrett, and Pancho Villa. This 1907 catalog documents the company at an early and formative stage of its history, presenting each saddle model with an individual photograph, catalog number, price, and detailed description of materials and construction — making it both a practical period reference and a visually compelling record of early 20th-century Texas saddlecraft.
The catalog offers an invaluable primary source for researchers and collectors interested in the working saddle trade of the Southwest during the open range era, capturing the full range of Myres' offerings for working cowboys, ranchers, and stockmen of the Texas frontier. Each entry's combination of photographic illustration and detailed specifications makes this catalog particularly useful as a reference for antique saddle collectors, Western Americana enthusiasts, and historians of Texas and Southwestern ranch culture. Scarce in its original form, this facsimile reprint makes a rare and important piece of Texas saddlery history accessible to a new generation of collectors and researchers.
