R.D. and Joan Dale Hubbard founded the Hubbard Museum of the American West in 1992. It has grown from its original incredible collection of Anne C. Stradling?s Museum of the Horse to being a truly first class historic Western museum. The famous Stradling collection includes bits, spurs, bridles and saddles from around the world, and an amazing collection of carriages, wagons and horse drawn vehicles spanning hundreds of years.
