Antique English Victorian Five Brass Martingale

A most attractive Late 19th Century Antique English Victorian Leather Martingale carrying five horse-brasses, viz. the Crossed Keys of St. Peter, a Pig, a Shire-horse, a Galloping horse, and a Royal Crown; the reverse of each brass stamped ENGLAND. Difficult today to imagine the importance of the horse in bygone days, prior to the arrival of the internal combustion engine; and the pride which Farmers, Carters, and others took in dressing these much valued animals which played such an important role in their lives.
Shown here in Images 3 and 4 alongside it's four brass companion, { Stock Ref. AV4BM-16 },  here listed separately, the two having been acquired together and both presently available for purchase.
