Calvin Allen side pull bridle

[kigerfan]

I purchased this at an estate sale this afternoon, I got a whole bunch of horse stuff for only fifteen dollars, I find that this alone is worth a couple of hundred. I put it on Firefly and she doesn't seem to have any issues with it. It has been sitting for a long time and the nose piece has gotten out of shape. I have it in a vice clamp right now in the correct shape and will leave it there for a few days before removing it to see how it adjusts. Otherwise, what do you all think of it? I was putting it up for sale but decided against it, that's why the description at the bottom I kind of like it.

Okay, now y'all have my curiosity up, there's been bunches of views but no responses.
Here's what I like about it. It seems to be made very well, Firefly doesn't have any problem with it at all but is also responsive to it on the ground. And, it stays far away from her eyes, One thing about traditional bridles that has always bothered me a bit is how very close they can get to the horse's eyes. Please, tell me what you guys think.

well she certainly doesn't look very worried about it in this picture! It looks like it fits her very comfortably, as long as the nose band isn't pressing in an odd spot, or scratchy.

I think it looks great -- great find! ;D

I have something very simular in my tack room. Only mine is black and made all of nylon. It works nicely for a friend of mines old horse Country, so she is borrowing it for now.

Firefly looks to be grabbing a quick nap, while you get the picture
