Due to bad seller pics I thought it was a Made Rite, but their was no embossing on the bottom as is typical for many value shaving brushes. If it didn't have a curve in at the base I would have named it a Rubberset. Definitely very old badger knot.
It has all the characteristics of a Simpson ..... one more to be restored.

It took some time to receive through the post, but it finally came in yesterday.
A Simpson Chubby 2 ..... I'm going to try to clean it and use it without replacing the knot. Any suggestions on revitalizing the knot? ..... It's in better shape than I thought originally.

That's a beauty..I've just used dish soap,then shampoo and conditioner on older knots..seems to work ok..so far.
