I think “SPRIN” is pretty clear, once you have an idea what to look for. I’m not trying to be wright here, and still I could be wrong. In fact, I thought it was a NARROW seat at first glance. However, that first letter is definitely not an “N” and I believe this is a “SPRINTER “ saddle. Only my opinion. Anthony
 
thanks Guys,
Sprinter makes a lot more sense
no cutout tabs for a toolbag on my saddle denoting a real short distance racing saddle.

To me it looks like sprinter, but I suppose I could be wrong.View attachment 872713

Where did you see that saddle Anthony? I would like to buy 2 like those!
My bikes are dated 1926. This saddle would be perfect until I find one old one.
I could ride my bikes with that saddle on.
