** RARE VINTAGE BONA ALLEN BONANZA SOLID STERLING SILVER CONCHO HEADSTALL HORSE REINS ** These reins are a true treasure, such rare to find. Maker marked Bonanza 4645 split western show reins with Solid Sterling Silver Conchos adorning the ends, these are just GORGEOUS and so cool! Coveted reins like these are so hard to come by, these have been with me nearly 20 years. This set is in excellent condition, don’t think these were used much. Maker marked BONANZA 4645 on both ends, all 5 matching floral engraved conchos are stamped STERLING, MEXICO except the one smaller mismatched bit end concho, see pics, still very nice silver on that one. Master silversmith work radiates from the conchos, the engraving is exquisite. The sterling has a lovely patina so I will leave it up to the new owner on whether or not to polish it. Supple dark oil hand rubbed leather that is stitched at the bit ends. Approx. 6.08 feet long and 5/8 of an inch wide. These have a wonderful feel, plus they will drape beautifully as they have some weight to them but most would hang these on a wall or add them to their collection. These reins bring back so many memories, a ton of history comes with them, I can only imagine the trails they have traveled. They likely were used on the series Bonanza, believe these were made by Bona Allen, I posted some history below. This set is an old school beloved classic style and rare to be found anymore. Please check out my other fine items for sale. I have lots of one of a kind trappings being listed, including a Fallis, Bob’s and a new 15 inch Cactus Saddlery Marlene McRae Special Effx saddle. Silver Mesa and Harris headstalls, Fleming sterling silver shows bits, custom bosals. Vogt kangaroo braided romal reins, and several custom vintage cowboy and bosal/hackamore show sets. Any questions or anything I can help you with please let me know. I also combine shipping. Thank you and happy bidding! Here is a little extra history on Bona Allen: Bonanza Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Bonanza Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Bonanza The horse saddles used by the Bonanza cast were made by the Bona Allen Company of Buford, Georgia. The Bona Allen Company Company type Manufacturer Industry Leather Goods Founded 1873 Founder Bonaparte Allen Sr. Defunct 1945 Headquarters Buford, Georgia, USA Products horse saddles, bridles, horse collars, postal bags, cowboy boots, shoes, baseballs, baseball gloves Number of employees 2,200 Bona Allen Tanners and Manufacturers building Bona Allen TanneryThe Bona Allen Company is a tannery and leather goods factory that opened in 1873 in Buford, Georgia. It became the nation’s largest producer of hand-tooled saddles, bridles, horse collars, postal bags, cowboy boots, and shoes and had a contract to supply the sporting equipment giant, Spalding, with raw material for the manufacture of baseballs and baseball mitts.[1][2] Starting in the early 20th century Bona Allen saddles were offered in the Sears Mail Order catalog under a variety of names. The Bona Allen Company was owned by Bonaparte Allen Sr. Also known as the Bona Allen Shoe and Horse Collar Factory, the factory closed in 1981 after a fire, and the main tannery building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 3, 2005.[3][4] It is located at 554 West Main Street. After another fire on February 10, 2015, firefighters allowed the building to burn itself down.HistoryBonaparte Allen learned the trade of tanning from his father, Washington Allen. Bonaparte opened the Bona Allen Company at the age of 27 and operated it as a tannery and leather goods shop. It started off making whiplashes, then followed with the production of horse collars. In 1903, a fire swept through the building and destroyed the business and the entire building.[5] Allen lost everything. But, thanks to his established business track record, a local bank loaned him the money he needed to re-establish and rebuild his business. It didn’t take Bonaparte long to restore his thriving business and pay off all of his debt.In 1925, Bonaparte Allen died. He left everything to his sons, Bona Jr., John, and Victor. They took over their father’s business and continued to produce what some people have deemed the country’s finest leather. The Great Depression of the early 1930s had a positive effect on the company’s tannery. The nation’s farmers could no longer afford to operate their tractors, so they had to return to using horses. This, in turn, created a demand for saddles and collars, as well as all other horse related equipment.[6]The Bona Allen Company continued to expand and soon was selling groceries and dried goods in addition to its leather products. In 1933, a Bona Allen saddle won a blue ribbon at the Chicago World’s Fair. [citation needed] At the fair, The Bona Allen Company provided several jobs as well as entertainment; it sponsored many sports events and teams such as basketball, football, and the Bona Allen Company’s own baseball team. In 1941, a strike was called and shut down the company’s shoe plant. Six months later, the government stepped in and reopened the shoe plant to repair army shoes. The company’s collar factory was closed for good after WWII.[7] The Bona Allen Company received special acclaim in the 1950s for production of its classic saddles. During the peak of western movies, many of Hollywood’s famous cowboy actors, including Roy Rogers, William F. (“Buffalo Bill”) Cody, Gene Autry, Kenny Rogers, Lash LaRue, Gabby Hayes, and the cast of the popular NBC-TV show Bonanza, preferred a Bona Allen saddle—some even bringing their horses to Buford, Georgia, to get them custom fitted.[8] To head its saddle department, the Company hired Victor Alexander, a famous saddle expert from the King Ranch in Texas.[9] Under his management, the Bona Allen Company produced some of the finest hand-tooled saddles and bridles ever made, including a silver-studded special order saddle for Roy Rogers.[10] Bonaparte Allen also owned up to 200 houses that he would rent to his employees; the houses would typically rent for $4.00 to $12.00 per month. Some employee could buy them with no down payment. In 1932, the Bona Allen Company hit the peak of its employment: 2,200 people worked there until rough times hit in 1943, when it closed its horse collar factory, shoe and chrome tannery—dropping its total employee headcount to 500.[11] Following the death of John Allen in 1968, the tannery and saddle and harness factories were sold to Tandy Corporation. The railroad depot closed in 1972, and the demand for horse-related leather goods decreased. While Tandy Corp. continued operations for a few years under the Bona Allen name, after the devastating tannery fire in December 1981, they chose not to rebuild, and the last of the Bona Allen Company’s 160 employees were let go.[12] ** WELCOME TO MY AUCTIONS ** IF YOU LIKE VINTAGE, CUSTOM, EXQUISITE OR UNQIUE ONE OF A KIND ITEMS YOU’VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE.
