Make your own Blue B17
I wanted a maroon B17, never made of course.
ordered a new one in Honey, wipedxit down aggressively with lacquer thinner to get rid of the factory finish as best I could, mixed up leather dye and applied several coats to a uniform covering. Let cure, then sealed with bees wax and clear shoe polish.

Sorry for the delay bicyclejohnny . First I forgot for a day or so, then I had to fumble around with the atrocious website interface until I came across your pic:

Thank you!
I'm slowly building my post count and will have more to share shortly.
I have about 11 saddles (mostly Brooks) in my inventory . The bike related Instagram I started in November has pics of my builds and parts . The handle is BicycleJohnny as well

I have a Brooks C17 that I'd be willing to part with. Copper rivets and black rails. It doesn't quite work for me. I'd be willing to swap for pretty much anything of similar value. I think I'm looking for something a bit narrower (in the 140mm width range).
EDIT: I'm *not* interested in leather saddles.

Looking to swap for VGC white Rolls saddle
I have a few vintage leather saddles to barter with, brooks, ideale. I'm looking for a white selle san marco rolls in very good condition, 8/10 at least. Plain or perforated leather would be OK. Happy to send pics of my saddles if anyone is interested.
