A custom silver parade outfit by noted New Mexico maker, Austin "Slim" Green. Made by Slim for fellow Santa Fe Rodeo board member, L.L. Langley, “in exchange for some real estate.” The saddle and accessories are tooled with deep floral design and dark stippled background. Sterling mountings have gold horse-head motifs with rope edges throughout, including on the floral domed buttons and conchos. Quilted padded 14" seat, 3 1/2" cantle, 16" swells and 17" Visalia style monkey-nose tapaderos. The breast collar has a large central sterling plate and the bridle features a 3-piece face drop. A fine example from one of the masters.
