Bidding (shilled?) at $30 for what can only b e described as the worst looking Brooks saddle I've ever seen. Sure, maybe if I was restoring my old 10 speed to look like it did at the end of it's life, this would be perfect.
But seriously.

This is Africa, 1943. War spits out its violence overhead and the sandy graveyard swallows it up. Her name is King Nine, B-25, medium bomber, Twelfth Air Force. On a hot, still morning she took off from Tunisia to bomb the southern tip of Italy. An errant piece of flak tore a hole in a wing tank and, like a wounded bird, this is where she landed, not to return on this day, or any other day.
