Horse Accessories
For the most part the Accessories for the Marx horses are fairly simple. So I'll attempt to cover them here on one page.
The accessory manual, or manual of instruction was either a typical manual printed and enclosed with the horse or was depicted on the back of the horse box.
Bay (Brown) and Sorrel (Red) horses usually got Black Tack, while Palomino (Cream) horses got Brown tack. The Colts and Mustang got no Tack.
