Mike Jackson’s Hartland Photos:
Gray Hartland Saddles

Text & Photographs Copyright Mike Jackson 1998-2008


The only confirmed figure getting the gray Confederate Saddle was General Lee. While some people like to put this saddle on their Rebel set, no collectors have ever reported getting the set that way and recent photos from 1961 Christmas Catalogs show him with a black saddle.

Gray and Yellow Confederate Saddle
Lee was the first of the generals and is generally easy to find. Loose McClellan saddles are tough to find loose. Lee saddles always seem to be in short supply. To make matters worse, some collectors rob this saddle from Lee to put with their Rebel sets (Probably not the way Hartland ever sent them out).

General Lee #808

Gray and Yellow Confederate Saddle
This saddle is from sets recast by Stevens Plastics in 1993-1994. The paint is not as glossy and the yellow is much brighter than the vintage saddles, but this one is still a nice piece.
