These both look good. I'm picking up the frame I want a saddle for tomorrow hopefully. (A 50s Gillott spearpoint) So If your selling these too I'll message you after I've collected it and have an idea what might suit.

Turns out the. Gillott spearpoint I wanted these for us no good so won't be needing them . It was advertised as a 22.1/2 inch (57cm actually) but is in fact a 24 inch c-t-t! Quite the measurement! Also, and worse, it was missing it's forks as it has been in a front end crash- there is a tell take dent/ ripple under the downtube by the head lug . Oh well. On the plus side it came with a Gillott branded steel stem, GB levers and bars, Williams chainset and a 1948 Sturmey Archer AM hub, so these are least easily cover the mighty £40 it cost me. Needs to go though, I have no room to keep it and it needs repairing by someone the right size for it if it can be saved

I have found two:
Mansfield narrow saddle that is from around then or perhaps earlier
Brooks oval badge
Both no rips, Brooks more weathered look (sun/rain perhaps) but also less £.
