It looks like a different saddle with longer springs (beehive underneath?). The B73 is like a B66 but with a spring in the front instead of a fixed rivet. The Superior ad talks about a Brooks tourist saddle and shows a 73, but I cannot recall ever seeing one on a post-war Superior. That gold Superior is an unusual color!
Yes - that's a B73 frame. So it seems at least some of the bikes came with the the triple spring. I have one of those saddles in a box somewhere around my place. I should see how it goes with the green Superior I have. I've got a light brown B66 on there for the time being. Thank you for finding that picture.
Edit: and the one you found has the tapered clamp as well.
I have seen this type clamp before but cannot find any info or images of it. Someone was talking about them not too long ago. I'm guessing '50s? Would love to know what bikes and it's age. Thanks
