Friday, February 7 from 12:30 – 1:30pm
Kicking off the Lunchtime Lecture series at the Briscoe, bits and spurs specialist, Kurt House returns to the Briscoe. House will talk about the spur and how they have evolved from a European symbol of wealth and power, to an essential tool of the cowboy. He will relate stories about spur makers and how the Texas-made OK spur became one of the most sought after pieces of cowboy equipment. House is a co-author of the book Bit and Spur Makers of the Texas Tradition.
