Description
In the Kona Districts, mules, donkeys and horses were the primary form of transportation in the early 20th century. Donkeys and mules were a very important part of Kona's coffee industry. These beasts of burden were used to haul coffee until after World War II when they were replaced by cheap, surplus army jeeps. Own a piece of that special history with this vintage donkey saddle.
