    Does anyone out there know what kind of case the Gillette Blue Tip Rocket originally sold in?.

    I know what you're all going to say, I'm fortunate to have found a Blue Tip Rocket, let alone the case. Would be nice to marry up with it's original case.

    Unfortunately surfing through the internet has not turned up anything. Help and knowledge would be much appreciated.

    I can't seem to find the reference, but I thought it was a case similar to the one a US Blue Tip SuperSpeed would have come in (i.e., blue), but with "Made in England" and British patent Nos. on the bottom.

    It would have been a light blue case.

    I assume it's the same case as the U.S. Blue Tip except marked "Made in England". I base this assumption on the fact that I have a cased Rocket Red Tip and the case is exactly like the U.S. Red Tip except marked "Made in England". 50'sRedtipRocket.JPG I bought this from the UK.
