QUESTIONS CONCERNING TEX TAN SADDLES MAY BE ANSWERED HERE...
PLEASE NOTE THAT SERIAL NUMBER CODES WERE NOT SHARED OVER THE YEARS BETWEEN ENTITIES THAT OWNED TEX TAN. THAT BEING SAID IF YOU WANT INFORMATION ON YOUR SADDLE 'YOU MUST SEND PICTURES OF IT TO JIMNWESTERN1@AOL.COM AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO DATE IT AND GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT IT COULD BE WORTH. THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES OF VALUE BETWEEN AREAS. SOME SADDLES MAY BE WORTH MORE IN YOUR AREA THAN AREAS WE ARE MORE FAMILIAR WITH CLOSER TO OUR HOME BASE IN OHIO. IF YOU DO NOT SEND PICTURES, THEN I WILL NOT ANSWER YOUR EMAIL.
WHAT WAS SHARED TO ME FROM THE PREVIOUS PRESIDENT OF TEX TAN IS THAT WITH EVERY FACTORY ORDER THERE WOULD BE AN ORDER DATE WITH A DASH - 1 THRU 10 FOR THE SADDLES IN THAT ORDER WHICH THEY RAN IN 10'S USUALLY, THEN THE MODEL NUMBER. MODEL NUMBERS USUALLY BEGIN WITH AN 081200 IS FOR A REINER

08400 - 08900 PLEASURE
08800 FOR A BARREL
08700 FOR ARABS
08300 FOR A ROPER
08200 FOR A CUTTER
0850 - PONY
THERE ARE SOME MODELS THAT WERE EXCEPTIONS BUT THIS MAY HELP SOME
AFTER THE MODEL NUMBER THERE COULD BE A LETTER FOR A COLOR, AND THEN A NUMBER FOR THE SIZE - 6 FOR 16", ETC.
WE JUST WANT TO LET YOU ALL KNOW WE DID NOT ACQUIRE ALL OF THE BRANDS FROM ACTION ON OUR OWN. THERE IS A BACK STORY TO IT ALL, AND WE JUST WANT TO GIVE CREDIT, WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. THIS WAS ONE OF THOSE GOD THINGS. WE INITIALLY PURCHASED TEX TAN ALONG WITH THE THE TEX TAN BRANDS AND INVENTORY, ALL OTHER ITEMS WAS WITH THE HELP OF THREE FRIENDS THAT WERE INVESTORS. DARIUS WARD, DAVE PETERSON, AND MIKE SCHULTE. WE HAD AN AUCTION IN JANUARY OF 2021 AND SOLD OFF EVERYTHING THAT WE COLLECTIVELY DID NOT WANT. EACH OF THE INVESTORS HAS THEIR OWN BUSINESSES THAT GLEANED FROM THE PURCHASE. JAMES COX SOLELY OWNES TEX TAN NOW. AFTER THAT WE ACQUIRED SIMCO / LONGHORN, AND LASTLY ABETTA, SADDLE SMITH OF TEXAS AND COWBOY PRO BRANDS. IT TOOK US A YEAR TO GET THEM ALL. THE ONLY BRAND WE DID NOT BUY IS ACTION BRAND ITSELF. THE PREVIOUS OWNERS HAVE REAL ESTATE HOLDINGS THAT THEY RUN UNDER ACTION REAL ESTATE. ALL OF OUR PURCHASES WERE ASSETTS ONLY. WE WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PREVIOUS LIABILITIES. ALL BRANDS, MOLDS, ETC. THAT WERE ACQUIRED BY US ARE OUR PROPERTY WITH NO LIABILITIES. WE WERE BLESSED TO GET THESE BRANDS AND THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT CAME WITH THEM, AS I SAID BEFORE THIS WAS A GOD THING! OUR MISSION STATEMENT IS WE HOPE TO CREATE AND PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR OTHERS TO SUCCEED AND REACH THEIR DREAMS THROUGH THE NEW TEX TAN WESTERN LEATHER COMPANY! THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR BUSINESS!
