August Buermann "Eureka" Spurs with original straps and 1 " Rowels. . I have found no markings but these spurs appear in the August Buermann catalog as model 31 BUERMANN EUREKA spurs made between 1870 and 1926. The spurs have a double fixed button with a unusual shank, the rowels are complete and move freely. about 30% of the plating is worn away, there is some surface rust as shown and moderate to heavy wear. I have found no rotten areas on the leather straps but there are a few cracks were the buckle goes through the strap as shown, there is also a "85" stamped on one of the leathers as shown. There are no cracks or breaks on the spurs. The heel opening measures a little over 3 1/4 inches wide - inside measurement.These spurs come out of a 60 year old collection of a famous Western artist who used them as props for his paintings. In some cases where the leathers were not present or in to bad a condition to use he would replace the leathers. In this case the leathers were not replaced and came with the spurs when he bought them in 1991 on a trip to Montana and Wyoming.
