Vintage western saddle makers marks
Hello everyone! My guess is circa 70s vintage based on the style. Seat Jockey is right below the seat, under your thigh, what the fender goes under to attach to the tree.
I'd like your help identifying the maker of this saddle please. I purchased it last week and took it to the saddler for re-fleecing. He can find no maker's mark, but is very curious about it because of the high quality of the saddle. He believes it is S. Western in origin or maybe even Mexican. It has a 15 inch gold seat stitched with a beautiful fire pattern.

I thought I was aware of most vintage saddle makers but this one has me stumped. The only thing I can find is a vintage Dorie Reese reiner for sale with similarities such as jockey shape and seat shape, material and color. Does anyone on here know anything about Dorie Reese saddles? I have never heard of this maker and the seller had no luck finding anything either. She is just going by what she was told. This one was made in the 60s.
