Attractive Tooled Holster and Rare S.C. Gallup Saddlery Co., Pueblo, Colorado, Cartridge/Money Belt

Manufactured prior to 1892, this is a very attractive holster rig for a 4 3/4 inch Colt Single Action Army revolver that includes a Colorado maker's marked cartridge/money belt. The belt is of very high quality and is marked as made by S.C. Gallup of Pueblo, Colorado. It is said that Gallup was able to set up his shop in Pueblo in 1869 with the help of E.L. Gallatin of Denver, with Gallup later opening locations in Dodge City and Durango, and by 1892 he had formed a partnership with R.T. Frazier, changing the name of the company. The belt itself is constructed of russet skirting leather, has a single row of .44/.45 caliber cartridge loops, a money pocket opening near the buckle, a rectangular nickeled buckle, and the maker's mark in an oval on the billet. The billet was moved back during the period of use to make the belt smaller. The belt measures 2 1/2 inches wide and 42 3/8 inches long. Included with the belt is an unmarked holster made of similar skirting leather, with two retention loops, and attractive border tooling on both the body and the back skirt. There are two holes drilled at the toe through the back skirt where they were once secured to each other. The holster is configured for a right handed shooter and will accommodate a 4 3/4 inch barreled Single Action Army revolver.

ConditionThe belt is fine with some mild wear, some light age-related cracking, and a few areas of stitching slightly loose. The holster is about fine with moderate wear and some light age-cracking. A rarely seen Gallup Colorado cartridge belt and an attractive holster!
