The Gillette Ball End Tech is a staple in the true vintage wet shaving arsenal. One of the highest numbers of manufactured razors, and tell an exciting story of Gillette marketing through a bulk of its history. This razor was made for the 'Cabalgata" or Spain's oldest parade, held since 1885. ... On the Sunday prior to 6 January, the feast of the epiphany, children dressed up as shepherds parade with their flocks to give gifts to the new-born Baby Jesus: this is a children's parade called “les Pastoretes” (the little shepherds). Neat!
