Subject: [CR]Concerning Middlemores saddle

Is there anything interesting to learn about a NOS Middlemores saddle I recently picked up for $20? The saddle appears similiar to a Brooks B17. The sides of the saddle have fairly elaborate stampings with Middlemores Ltd./ Coventry surrounding a globe with "M" in center. The top of the saddle has 3 holes down the middle with B89 stamped toward the rear. There is a Brooks like Middlemore badge on the back, & is fastened to a black steel frame with 9 small rivets. Does anyone know an approximate date? Thanks, Greg Brooks Ridgetop,TN
