Does anyone remember the Cadillac Bar in Nuevo Laredo? They had Pancho Villa’s saddle on display. (It was heavily worked with silver.)
I first saw it when I was about 7 years old... don’t know if it’s still there...(probably been replaced by some cartel jefe’s gold plated AK.)

There were a few of those saddles sold around the border, too.

Up in San Antonio,at the Briscoe museum, the one made by Joaquin Rodriguez and Alberto Tulancingo Marquez is on display still, I guess.
