Garcia turns the business over to his sons Les and Henry 1933 – G. S. Garcia dies 1936 – Les and Henry move the business back to Salinas, California, however it shuts down for WWII 1946 – Business reopens after the war 1957 – Les sells out his portion of the business to Henry, Les continues to produce some items marked “Les Garcia – Reno” 1979 – the J.

Born: 1864 Died: 1933 Locations: Elko, NV & Salinas, CA Markings: “GS GARCIA ELKO NEV”, “GSG HAND MADE”, “GS GARCIA MAKER ELKO NEV” Garcia’s marks vary over time based on the location where the business was located and the ownership as well. These marks can be generally categorized as follows: “G.S. GARCIA” “ELKO NEV.” – This is the mark used while the shop was in Elko, Nevada. Early on the mark has a backwards “N” in Nev., this was changed around 1910 to a regular “N”. This can be a helpful feature in dating Old Spurs. “GARCIA” “SADDLERY COMPANY” “SALINAS CALIF.” – This mark was used by Les Garcia after his father left the company, when his sons moved to Salinas. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If you are a fan of Western Americana or are looking to add a unique piece to your collection, these gorgeous spurs are a must-have.
