Ed: Thanks. I hope to practice butchering and, making under-splash guards for various shapes of saddles. This is personal use, not commercial. Although, if I achieve useable patterns for the splash guards, I would send them to any CR lister by request.

So, "Genuine Junque" is just the ticket. Lack the confidence to take a knife to a good and usable leather saddle. If you wish to send it along, that would be very kind indeed.

How badly do you want one? I am in Saskatchewan, and have a seat on an old Carlton that spent three (at least) winters in the Saskatchewan weather - wind driven rain and snow, -40 to +95 temperatures.

Might be a Brooks, but not sure. Can look. Pretty bad shape. Could take photos.
