I suppose no one had tape measures or yard sticks back then. I was born in the wrong century... could have made a hundred thousand dollars, which is like a few million in today's money...

Only if you invented a standard measure and persuaded the powers that be... were... to adopt it :-)

3.3 hands - 15 inches at the withers, the smallest horse ever documented. Too Small! But, this animal reportedly only lived to be two years old (just short of what anyone would call mature).
21.2 ? hands - 86 ? inches at the withers. Tallest horse ever documented, a Shire gelding named Sampson (aka Mammoth with good reason!) measured in 1850 and listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.
In between sizes here:

4 inches. It was standardised from the old method of literally measuring a horse with the palm of a man's hand.

That was the whole point of standardisation :-)
In ye olden days many measurements were approxiamate. A yard is based on a man's average stride.
