Aristocrat Flare Tip in the wrong case?

[gearchow]

Picked this up yesterday. Achim has a similar case, but a later date and with a Single Ring in it. The serial number on this one is C885326 (1915). The price was right even if it was in a plastic bag, so I bought it. Doesn't have period blade cases, but pretty old DE cardboard blade packs.





I've seen plenty of old cases with new razors, but I don't recall an old razor in a new case.

Still, nice case, nice razor.

Nice score

Case looks a lot like a bull dog case except for the brown color
