This Aristocrat #16 arrived over the weekend. It was a bit dirty but underneath the grime it is in fantastic shape, no plating loss that I can see anywhere. The case looked in a very bad shape, what looked like corrosion and a lot of tarnish all over. I polished out the corroded bits with Maas and 0000 steel wool and it's now more than passable. Still needs a bit more work but I've ran out of Maas. The vintage Mersey blades were a nice little surprise.

You know, one minor reason I wanted the #16 is because it's a birth year razor for me. Many years ago I went through that search for US made razors and it was slim pickins. I do have one razor that's definitely the right year, but it's sorta vague with some others. Heh, trouble is, I don't care to use the thing and should just sell it.
So what I'm finally getting around to asking you is: What year do you think that razor was made? Have you done some checking on that, and what did you find out? Yes, this is a loaded but serious question. From what I gather, it turns out the original blades may be the key to solving the puzzle.
Any thoughts on the subject would be welcome,
Martin
