The JEWELL company was founded in the late 1800s  and was bought by
WESTON ELECTRICAL INSTRUMENTS Co. in 1928.  It is perhaps linked to
the company now called JEWELL INSTRUMENTS.

The meter came with rattling glass  and crumbled red glue pieces on
its scale.  Discovery after disassembling:  (1st) Double-Glass with
discolored & cracked cellophane in between; the inner glass broken.
After removing all dirt,  a frame of black card-board  was made  to
seal the ( one ) cleaned glass  and fixed with its original clamps.
(2nd) A redish bakelit frame between the case-parts  had detoriated
rubber seals.  After breaking away the rubbish, cotton threads were
layed in  and sucked with VASELINE to made it "weather-proof".  The
grip, treated with  COACH » LEATHER MOISTURIZER « , got fine again.
