Hey, gang, found a NEW at an antique store yesterday. It was in an EverReady case, which was falling apart, but the razor is in okay shape. One side of it, however, is in need of work. I've attached pictures, but basically there's a green patina on one corner of the head, and pitting on the very last tine. I've used soaks in dish soap and the Bubbles, and taken a toothbrush to it. I think my next step is some brass cleaner, but wanted to get the community's input. I don't need this to be museum-quality (replating is outside of my budget, I think) but would love to shave with something that's 80 years old. Thanks in advance for the help!
The B&W picture is here, by the way, not just for artistic value but because it really brings out the pitting in that tine.
