Mr. Wright is an expert leather
saddle maker and one of the oldest in
the country. His saddle collection
comes from all parts ofNorth Ameri­
ca. Unusual items include a Canad­
ian Mountie saddle that was in serv­
ice over 50 years ago; a Buena Vista
gentleman’s riding saddle left from
old plantation days; and a western
saddle from Mexico City. This one is
handmade of the finest leather. The
pattern is of rosebuds and leaves.
Each leaf and petal of the intricate
design has been cut from separate
hide and sewn so skillfully to the
original body that it appears to be
tooled from a single piece of leather.
The rosebuds stand an inch high.
Wright estimates that the saddle rep­
resents at least six months’ labor. It
is definitely a collector’s item and the
work of a craftsman, but not very
practical for everyday use. It weighs
about 100 pounds.
So if you are ever in Fort Dodge,
pay a visit to Charles Wright. The
latest in modern tack for every type
of horse and rider in a friendly old-
time setting is a refreshing find in­
deed. Allow plenty of time- you won’t
want to rush away.

CBWHA meeting was held in Tol­
edo on February 21. Discussion on
judge for Walking Horse classes at
Iowa State Fair was main topic. No
definite appointment was made. Mr.
RICHARD PETERS, Editor of ISHA
magazine, was present to thank the
Association for their support of the
publication. The Association voted
to use this magazine as one adver­
tising medium for 1965. Plans for
1965 Annual Midwest Celebration
are pending.
