Legit?

http://www.slanecycles.com/brooks-b1...D&delivery=223

A new Brooks B17 Special with copper rivets and rails. Under $100 shipped seems too cheap. Do you guys think its legit? The photo looks generic and not correct, but the description is of this saddle:



I think it would look nice with some VO elk hide wrap on this new acquisition:



I'm picking out parts as I restore it. A few more parts to strip and it will be in the OA bath. Also, who has ridden a Turbo and a B17? I'm comfortable on my Turbo, but I'm a little nervous about spending $100 on the Brooks and not being comfortable.
