Rolls Razor Question--Apologies if This is in the Wrong Forum

[TexasFietser]

As noted, my apologies if this is posted incorrectly.

I just bought off of the Bay a Rolls Razor that appears to be NOS. It is bit different from my other Rolls razors, however, and I'm wondering what I have. This one does not have the usual round release buttons on the ends but instead has rectangular buttons (one marked S (for strop, obviously) and the other marked H (for hone)). The two-digit stamp on the blade shows it as 1952 vintage. The case (which feels to to be aluminum) has the single-row Greek Key pattern.

I haven't cleaned it or done anything with it yet, even though I know it has little value as a collectable. I enjoy using a Rolls as a daily shaver, although there was a bit of a learning curve for me.

Anyway, thanks in advance for your attention.

Any photos would be a great help in further identifying the model.

As requested. RR1 shows the rectangular release button, while RR2 shows the single Greek Key design on the case.

Could it be a 1950s Viscount model in a simulated leather case?

I'm thinking that's what it is, thanks.
