In 1998, Marsh Brothers acquired the
tooling to
produce the Tietjen traditional bridle bits,
designed and
produced between 1970-1985 by Al Tietjen of Reno, Nevada.
These have now become a Marsh Brothers standard
product with a variety of cheek and mouthpiece
combinations to suit your needs.
While in the Gallery you will be able to view past pieces of work
that Ernie Marsh has created, some of which have appeared in
national publications as well as western artisan shows such as the annual
Traditional Cowboy Artists Association show in Oklahoma City.
Here the discerning horse person can find the finest quality bits,
spurs and silver work by Ernie Marsh, an internationally respected artist.
The unique engraving style, artistry and quality of craftsmanship combined
the traditions of the past has led to Ernie Marsh's reputation as one of today's
finest contemporary makers. Ernie is not doing commission work on bits
and spurs, but the Merchandise page shows those items, which are currently available.
The Westfall schoolhouse, built in 1892, one of the last remaining
buildings in this ghost town, is where Ernie maintains
his shop and is also home to the Westfall Saddle Shop.
