sears robuck's (sp) western saddle

Just wondering if any one had a sear's western saddle when they were a kid? I found one yesterday at a tack shop, it's 12 inch, and seems to fit my 15 month old son, ( he needs to grow in to it some more, just wondering if any one had one and remembers what it was like ridding in????

I would think it would be worth something just in antique value. I wonder in what years Sears sold saddles. It would be something interesting to research, even if it rode like a board.

This one sold in February this year. Asking price was $1,350 but it was a complete set: http://www.tom-stevens.com/Antique/S.../SearsSet.html
