Anyone know what kind of saddle this is? MTB or Road?
My GF found this at a thrift store of all places...it's a TFI "Liberator" leather made in Italy. It looks comfey, but I'm unsure what it is as I haven't found an exact match 4 it on the web.

Look under the saddle their should be the a name on it. I think it might be Velo from that pic, but it's hard to tell. Got a cleaner pic?

Definately an older Terry Liberator. And judging by the width a womens model. Certainly a nice saddle. Funny thing is that it looks like the google sponsered ad knew what saddle it was:

Women's Bike Saddles
Terry Butterfly, Liberator, Chubby Cheeks and more.

I love this saddle. It's my all-time favorite (and I've tried many). I got one for my road bike and it fit me so well that I put one on my mountain bike too. Hope you like it!

The only downside is that Terry doesn't seem to make a new saddle with the huge cut-out like this anymore. So I have gotten both of mine used.
