MODEL 1916 CANTLE BAG LINER – DIFFICULT ITEM TO FIND ON THE LOOSE TO COMPLETE YOUR BAGS:  A single green canvas liner for the Model 1916 Cantle Bags.  One of the more difficult saddle or cantle bag liners to find on the loose, these liners are far more scarce than the standard 1885-1904 saddlebag liners and are unique to the Model 1916 Cantle Bags in their cut, style and size.  Made of a light OD green canvas, the liner has the four whip stitched button holes (two on the front, two on the rear) to attach the liner into the cantle bag.  The canvas is overall clean with some minor soiling due to use.  The top edge still retains the binding which covers the raw edge of the canvas and it is completely intact with no wear.  The liner does have a ½” hole low on the front panel which would not be visible when the liner is in the bag.  There are also two separations in the bottom of the gusset as can be seen in the photographs below.  One is 1” long and the other is 2” long.  Both of these could be sewn up if you so desired, but both are stable, neither affects the integrity of the liner, and neither would be visible when the liner is mounted in the cantle bag.  This is a scarce opportunity to complete one of your cantle bags and in spite of the obvious signs of use and wear, this liner will display very nicely.  $125
