Cleaning up a Junior

[Glen]

Hi all

Thought I'd share some pics of my recently arrived Aristocrat Jnr #53, 1949 I believe?
I did some cleaning and it's coming up well so far apart from some dark marks on the handle. The head opens okay although the doors are quite loose. I may have a Monday morning shave with this...

Nice work mate!
So it's not a Rocket then?....help us @Mark1966

It's an English made Aristocrat, but I don't have a blade with the date.

Pics for those w/o a B&B account don't work btw...

So of the AJ's didn't have the flat base under the head mate, if that is what you are referring to.

Oh OK, got it. Such small nuances that I miss. I assume the gap at the tip would be a give away too.

I'd have to check - that is on the Rockets too I think

Thanks Borked, didn't know that.

Looks nice and thanks for bothering to rectify it.
Is one of the things that annoy me about B&B, they refuse to share their content, even if hosted elsewhere.
