Nice! I have saved the photos to my file of interesting old saddles.
I don't know who made these, but I have two saddles in my "study collection" with the same frame. One is stamped "Mercier" and the other has a big Motobecane "M" on it. So whoever it was, apparently they made saddle for bike companies.
T&B did that as well; the Schwinn "Sprint" saddle seems to use the same frame as the Ideale 42.
