I believe so.  I purchased it that way and a friend of mine also picked one up identical to it.

How is the Peerless distinguished from a standard 1912. I thought it was a handle with a diamond pattern like the one on the right in this picture.

Menthol Micromatic Monday!
DE-less-cemBoar (™Wchnu)

Cold Water Shave w/ Hot Water Lather
Pre - Aloe Vera Glycerin Soap Face Wash, Noxzema Cream as Pre Shave
Razor - Gem Micromatic Open Comb
Blade - Personna Injector (2nd Use)
Brush - Semogue SOC Boar in Taj Resin
Lather - Stirling Soap Co. (Glacial Electric Sheep), Face Lathered
Post - Generic Reformed Alum Block, T.N. Dickinson’s Witch Hazel, Jeris Osage Rub, Nivea Sensitive Cooling Balm

Two passes for the win! A bit of irritation taken care of by post shave routine. A wintery shave with all the menthol!

Got the backyards raked up just before the rain started, which should knock down the last of the stragglers.

Actually I should change that description in my Shave Buddy app.   Based on an advertisement it is the Peerless set, not the razor itself.  Sorry for the confusion!

Is it a Made in USA or Made in England Gem?

US made.   The other set that looks similar is Nu Metal, but that just doesn't sound right.  I know that handle was introduced in 1927, so it is a later model and not marked Damaskeene.
