I was thinking the same...I have a burgandy/wine/maroon colored Brooks Team with copper rivets/rails- no black
For that truely retro feeling (think back to that yellow pages ad from your childhood - "eee, I were right about that saddle though") you could go with a Cinelli Unicanitor saddle or any one of the myriad of plastic BMX saddles:

Lots of different colours Flite .
Specialized did a brown version of their Prolong saddle, c.'92-ish. One of the only saddles with 6/4 ti rails, and dead comfey to boot. [or to sit on !]
It was a bit orange to begin with though, much to my horror when it arrived :shock: , but 17years later it's patinated up to a nice chesnut brown

the thought of riding a plastic saddle makes me cringe now...oh to be 10 again.
Didn't X-Lite do some coloured jobs, mid 90s ? ..also with 6/4 rails if I remember.
If you fancy the vintage/classic look [brown], there's always the amazing Campag Electa pneumatic saddle. Not sure it was meant for MTBs, but it did come as standard on the '92 Dynatech Endeavor. Could be a perch-of-genius... but then again early 90s offroad Campy
