Date Code Help

OK, I would swear I had seen it, but now I can't find it. Where is the explanation for the manufacturing date codes on vintage razors?

I have a used Gillette I am trying to figure out. Made in England. X1
 
Thanks!

Very interesting. The razor is a small travel kit. I will post pics later, but it has "Made in England" over the bottom piece that holds the blade, then the underside has the X 1 stamped on it. The top piece has "Gillette" written across it.

So if the US system holds, it would be from the first quarter of 1952 or 1977.
