What Mesinger seat is correct 1950 B507 ?

[Henryford2]

This is the bike I own (1950 according to the serial number), missing the correct seat. From the picture shown (1948 catalog) it appears to be a sliding rail Mesinger (the B507 model is not shown in the 1950 catalog). The B507 is the same as the B6 with the exception of not having the fender light tank and springer. Would either be correct, sliding rail or fixed post? Thanks

What’s the serial number and where’s it located at?

I believe we spoke on eBay? That seat appears to be a sliding rail mesinger in your photo.

AFAIK 1950 would have had a "thru the rail" clamp bolt.

Another catalog goof perhaps?
This is an unrestored original, VERY late production in 1949 (guessing it would have been built to '50 specs) B507
Look at the seat on it....
