To honor our Canadian brothers & sisters, I used this Gillette Canadian Rocket. Classic 1952 smooth and close shaver.

Hi Jake and other Gillette aficionados,

Can you tell me please if I understand the branding of these Rockets correctly?

1. "Rockets" were only sold in Canada?
2. When sold in the UK, this razor was sold under a name or number that didn't include the word "Rocket"?
3. That the razor to be found within Rocket branded cases, and only sold in Canada, was actually manufactured in England?

Thanks.
