I can send a photo if you want, but this is an as new black B17S Standard, black rails, silver rivets -
http://www.brooksengland.com/catalogue-and-shop/saddles/touring+&+trekking/B17+S+Standard/#sidecontents
The "S" is for "short", AKA a ladies saddle although I suppose it's just fine for a gent who wants a shorter nose.
I applied proofhide once, installed it, took my wife for 2 short tandem rides before it became clear she does not have the ass hardness necessary to break in a brooks. She'd kill me before the needed breakin period, oh well, I tried ...
$80 shipped and paypaled, includes brooks tension wrench which has of course not been used.
