Vintage British stainless blades?

I recently bought an old Gillette razor made in England. When the package arrived, It had 2 blades I have never seen before (or at least the packaging).
The first is an EverSharp made in Britain. I know Schick made EverSharp blades, but they had a mirror finish. These do not.
The second is an Astra Superior Stainless, but the packaging is not at all like the current version.
Anyone know anything about these two blades?

I have shave with Eversharp double edge blades, not sure they are the same pictured. Not a commonly found blade. They were in a black and silver packaging. I like vintage blades and have tried many. The Eversharp were as good as any I have tried.
