What Can You Tell Me About This Case
My StepDad left me a message to come to his nearby antique shop to check out a razor he'd gotten in. As you can see, it's a Case with mottled cream and brown celluloid scales:

Sorry for the i-phone pics. Though it seems to be in fairly decent shape, there are some longitudinal scratch marks on the blade face, presumably from a prior polishing attempt. There is a fair amount of black tarnish and "devil's spit," though it looks like Mother's could get a lot of it:

Not much hone wear, some minor chipping on the edge-it looks bright from a recent honing attempt, but is currently butterknife dull. There is some rust under the tang in the pivot, but it doesn't look too deep to sand out:Attachment 119908
Other than that, the scales look great, very shiny, with no cracks. The bolsters look like they would polish right up. Here are both sides of the tang:

I'm not sure if you can see the $125 on the tag (though he quoted me a good discount!). I'm pretty broke post Christmas and property taxes, so I had to walk away for now. He says he'll hold it for me. I'm just curious if any of you Case guys can tell me more about this one. I know we don't offer valuations on SRP, but if someone wanted to PM any thoughts, I'd appreciate it. Thanks-Aaron/SHD
