From Associated Press

Neiman Marcus is inviting its well-heeled clientele to put on a pair of spurs and recapture the Wild West.

The Dallas-based retailer began delivery Tuesday of its Christmas catalogue, the annual wish book of the wealthy. For one cowpoke with $108,000, Neiman’s will sell a hand-tooled saddle by Edward H. Bohlin Co., lavishly furnished with sterling silver and 18-karat gold.

A cowboy ain’t a cowboy without a horse, so for $4,000 and up Neiman Marcus is offering a selection of champion-bloodline painted horses from the Real Ranch. Those wishing to recreate the cattle drives of the Old West can reserve a pony to ride herd for a weekend at a ranch.

“Texas is really in right now,” Neiman spokeswoman Jan Roberts said. “From the President to ‘Lonesome Dove,’ Texas and the West are in vogue. . . . We thought we should get back to our roots.”
