Neither is the use of silver an identifier of Mexican origin, especially considering the prolific abundance of silver in the Plata region. |
LOL, its another rainy day here
Thanks for the help. I did find a very similar pair listed on a website for sale and they were described as Mexican circa 1880 I think.
But then I really do know nothing about these things. The traditional 'tools of the trade' of the 'cow-punchers' of Devon England, are wellington boots, wax jackets and hedges! No open ranges and no 'round-ups'.
