EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a Vigor Saddle, also known as the "Horse-action Saddle," from the year 1896. The saddle, which is not to be confused with the Vigor Saddle Company, showcases an innovative design that aimed to improve both the comfort of the rider and the health of the horse. The saddle's most striking feature is the electrical component, which was believed to stimulate the horse's muscles and improve its performance. The electrical wires, visible in the image, were connected to the saddle's pommel and cantle, and were said to transmit small electrical currents to the horse's back as it moved. This supposedly helped to keep the horse's muscles warm and relaxed, reducing fatigue and improving overall performance. Despite the intriguing concept, the scientific basis for the electrical component of the saddle remains unclear, and its effectiveness is a subject of ongoing debate among historians and equestrian experts. Regardless, the Vigor Saddle represents an intriguing chapter in the history of horse riding equipment, showcasing the ingenuity and creativity of inventors in the late 19th century. The saddle's design also features a unique "action seat," which was intended to provide the rider with greater control and comfort. The seat was designed to move with the horse's movements, allowing the rider to maintain a more natural and relaxed position while riding. This design was believed to reduce the risk of injury to the rider and improve their overall riding experience. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing a piece of equestrian history that continues to intrigue and inspire. Whether you're an avid horse rider, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty and innovation of the past, this image of the Vigor Saddle is sure to captivate and inspire you.
