ANTIQUE SAFETY RAZOR GILLETTE MADE IN ENGLAND ARISTOCRAT 430.030 SILVER BOX 9

Description

H
ello and welcome to
Southamerican-Collectibles!
What are you bidding on?
You are bidding on an original silver color Gillette safety razor made in England known also (correct me if I am wrong) as Aristocrat model. The Gillette shows BRIT PAT 430.030.
The handle has this great design as a barber pole.
Seem to be a few miniature chips on the base of this handle pole.
Condition is acceptable as observed. There is some corrosion and patina. Works OK however is fair to mention that when you turn the lower part in order to open the razor it will only open approx. half way...you need to manually push it a bit in order for it to complete the 180 degress full aperture. I believe this should be easily fixed but like to mention everything as good as I can.
The metal case is in terrible condition shows a lot of patina and dirt inside really difficult to remove. All the internal original velvet and protection is gone. Only the shell remains to be honest.
I tried to clean the item as much as possible but you may still find dusty and stainy areas. A professional cleaning is advised specially if you plan to use it.
Please look carefully at the pictures provided to understand what you will receive.
I am listing today MANY other Gillettes razors. Please check them out.
I will be happy to combine shipping costs if you buy more than 1 item.
