Catalog No. 14 \/ Facsimile Reprint Saddle","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a facsimile reprint of the original catalog.Hermann H. Heiser Saddlery Co. Catalog No. 14is a circa 1908–1910 retail catalog from one of the American West's most storied leather goods manufacturers. Published by the Denver, Colorado firm then operating under the founder's three sons following Hermann Heiser's death in 1904, the catalog presents the full \"House of Heiser\" product line, including gun scabbards, pistol holsters, belts, and novelty leather goods.\u003cbr\u003eHermann Heiser's story is woven into the fabric of Western expansion. A German emigrant, he opened his first saddle shop in Platteville, Wisconsin around 1850 before joining the westward migration to Colorado in 1853, where frontier demand for quality gun leather proved a natural fit for his craft. He followed the Cherry Creek gold rush to Denver in 1859, and it was there that the Heiser reputation truly took root — the firm's Triple H trademark became the ninth registered in the State of Colorado. Among his most notable commissions, Heiser is credited with producing saddles for the Rocky Mountain Division of the Pony Express. After his sons took over management, the business continued under family ownership until 1945, when Ewald Heiser sold the operation to the Denver Dry Goods Company. Catalog No. 14 offers a detailed window into the firm's product line at the height of its reputation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e82 pages. 6\" x 9\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSatisfaction guaranteed or you can send it back!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LaCava Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48510217715867,"sku":"EBAY-358374236200","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/7705\/6411\/files\/57_c9e94b90-a317-4024-bd72-40c1b9914197.jpg?v=1778115337","url":"https:\/\/lacavararebooks.com\/products\/the-hermann-h-heiser-saddlery-co-catalog-no-14-facsimile-reprint-saddle","provider":"LaCava Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
