The 1/2 Seat Cheyenne saddle was ridden by the Texas Trail Drovers of this time period. This basic 1/2 seat style was used for many years but it wasn't until about 1880 that the front jockey was put on them to give them more of a finished look. This basic style was made by many makers including Gallatin, Meanea, Collins, and Frazier. All made their own version of this saddle. This saddle was so popular that it was featured in some catalogs until the '20s and '30s.

This tree style was developed by the Miles City Saddlery Comapny which was owned by Coggshall at the time. It is said to be the first tree to be carved with swells instead of pieced together with individual pieces of wood to make the swells. Coggshall is credited with the idea but he was the business owner, and not a saddlemaker. The swells are low on this tree which make them very accessible to the rider.

The Hope Saddle was originally created by Adolphus Hope of Washington County, Texas in the early 1830's. With its predominate anglo influence, the saddle became quite popular among the early Texans for its form and functionality.
Hope modified the traditional Mexican large, oversized horn to fit the needs of the Texas cowboy. The feature permitted the cowboy more control while roping the wild longhorn in the thick Texas brush country. In addition, he helped popularize the use of a double cinch to keep the saddle firmly in place. Because once the slack in the rope was removed, as they say, "all hell would break loose" as the longhorn would break for cover.
Hope improved the current trend of the era by adding more leather to the rawhide tree, a relative new invetnion, as the custom was that of using simple wooden trees covered with leather for padding.
