Description: I love collecting silver bits and strive to get those I like. I enjoy them and try not to keep too many due to limited space. Eventually I part with them for others to enjoy. I must describe the etching on this bit as amazing, so detailed and beautifully carved. Pictures are both sides of the bit showing the excellent condition. They certainly don't make them like this anymore. Marked Mexico on the mouthpiece and EG./SF. on the slobber bar.Info taken from a collector website: El Gato is a brand name marked on spurs that were made and imported for Bob McBride. He originally started having popular old bits and spurs copied by makers in Mexico, primarily by Aguilar Navarro Bros., Bravo Bros., and Lunas family. These pieces exhibit many styles and types of construction because they were making copies of whatever was sent. They are easy to identify and date between ’65-’95. The El Gato mark exists in 3 varieties: a block stamp of “EL GATO SAN FRANCISCO”, “EG/SF”, and a script “El Gato”.I am shipping with insurance, priority.
