Deal is that my Raleigh came with a brooks originally and to restore it a brooks is what it needs.

it's not a Brooks, it's not leather, either. A vinyl mattress saddle made in Taiwan. Shouldn't be that hard to find a genuine Brooks mattress, I've thrown out a number of them.

Yep, it's a Cycle Products vinyl mattress saddle. I have one on my Columbia 3-speed.
