That Aristocrat #15, assuming Made in England is a definite score for $35! Baking Soda and Aluminum should bring it back nicely if silver plated !

Thanks for the tips, @Mark1966 . After lots of research I think I have a 1936 silver-plated Aristocrat which is pretty rare (predates the gold and rhodium numbered sets). Even better is the case indicates it was a thankyou gift from a famous Calcutta restaurant which adds a great layer of history. The razor came up a treat and the blade bank revealed a man who liked PermaSharps.

Thanks, Speedy. It was fortunately not that excessive nor llife-threatening a sacrifice.

As you kindly once advised me, Agent 66, patience and persistence pay off. Can't hold a candle to your superb collection, Mate.
