Got a Gem Jewel

Hey guys, managed to win a Jewel on eBay a few weeks ago. Was just listed as a Gem razor so no one bid against me. The plating on the Jewels and Streamlines must be super thick because it looks like it's hardly been used, maybe one more small ding than my Streamline. Came with the white Bakelite case, but the single slot smaller case without the strop or anything. It really is in near mint condition, other than two small dings. Here's some pictures, the clouding is from soap, I've been using it as my daily razor at this point :001_tongu. Anyone know how rare the Jewel was in comparison to the Ever Ready?

Nice pickup! I just recently acquired another Jewel myself. It's become my daily shaver, as I have retired all my cased jewels/streamlines to my collection.
 
I bet if you were living in Britain, it would be easier to find out and about? I'm using Wardonia as an analogy. I've only seen one piece of Wardonia here in the states and that was a piece of advertising, but every piece of Wardonia I have came from Britain (ebay).
