I'm back ...
OK, so from the photos we can ascertain that:
- It is Made in England
- It is a Blue Tip
- It is a SuperSpeed and NOT a Rocket (no gap between the knob and the handle)
- It has some brassing (brass evident and green verdigris showing oxidation)
Apart from that it should clean up OK and
@FatBoy58 does wonders in that regard.
A US Blue Tip SuperSpeed would be a common razor and not hugely collectible in this condition and uncased. The British Blue Tip Rockets are less common and more collectable, the British SuperSpeeds are less common again.
I would suggest values broadly within these ranges for an uncased razor in this condition (all in $AUD):
- Blue Tip SuperSpeed - Made in USA: $A20 - 40
- Blue Tip Rocket - Made in England: $A40-80
- Blue Tip SuperSpeed - Made in England: $A60 - 100
The ranges are broad because it is always a crap shoot on eBay and it is a little hard to tell the condition just from those pics. It is certainly a collectible and you need to be careful in restoring it that you don't interfere with that, e.g. re-painting the knob, as that will detract from the value.
Having checked my collection, I have all three Blue Tips (including cases for two) so I'm not in the running - might be your lucky day
