Help me identify this razor

I think this is a New. Is it an Old Type or are they one in the same?

Gillette NEW, mid 30s?

Actually, that might be a FrakenRazor. It has the "Common Bar Handle" from a "New", but the head appears to have nubs sticking down out of the top, making it an Old Type head.

I could of course be confused, and it is a "New Improved".

+1 on the old type head with common bar handle.
The head's original handle was likely one of the ball ends that cracked easily, so it was replaced with that one.
