Charlie Kaupke Ed Blanchard Spurs

Charles Kaupke talks about Ed Blanchard Spurs. Edward Fred Blanchard was a popular early spur maker in the southwestern part of the United States. He was born near Magdalena, New Mexico on September 26, 1894. Blanchard was a true cowboy spur maker. He worked on various ranches in New Mexico and made bits and spurs as a side line. From 1940-1948, Blanchard
was in Datil, New Mexico during the summer months, working for the Forest Service as a fire lookout. He worked in Monticello, New Mexico during the winters of those years as a cowboy. Many of his spurs made after the mid 1940s were marked with the town and state of manufacture. San Antonio, N. M. is one such mark. Datil, N.M. and Monticello N. M. are others. The New Mexico marked spurs are very collectible. #NBSSCA #spurhistory #blanchardspurs #collectibles #heretohelpyou #cowboycollectibles
