The clock is assembled in a semi-enclosure made from old cassette tape cases. (Thanks to Denis for this idea.) Yes, it's a bit messy.
My first attempt at playing with effects. This is our 'grandfather clock' - a fabric one that sticks to the wall.
Restored clock by United Clock Corp. Brooklyn, NY. I found it in an old warehouse in Hoboken, NJ. It was covered with rust and paint. I stripped it down, rewired it and its now the newest addition to my wall. It's almost eleven! Where does the time go!
This French clock was given to my grandparents as a wedding present in 1905. See the whole clock at: www.flickr.com/photos/9742303@N02/4954034840/

Stork in Nessebar ( Nessebur) clock
Nessebar - UNESCO HERITAGE , One of the oldest towns in Europe
Situated on a rocky peninsula on the Black Sea, the more than 3,000-year-old site of Nessebar was originally a Thracian settlement (Menebria). At the beginning of the 6th century B.C., the city became a Greek colony. The city's remains, which date mostly from the Hellenistic period, include the acropolis, a temple of Apollo, an agora and a wall from the Thracian fortifications. Among other monuments, the Stara Mitropolia Basilica and the fortress date from the Middle Ages, when this was one of the most important Byzantine towns on the west coast of the Black Sea. Wooden houses built in the 19th century are typical of the Black Sea architecture of the period
The Grandfather clock purchased for my father. It is something I will one day own, and every time I visit my mother, I stop and look at it and feel time passing.

I found this clock at a flea market. It was made by E. Ingraham Co. Bristol, Conn.
I'm guessing it is from the 30's. I like the unusual numerals.

Restoring this clock for a Porthmadog man to find a signature made by the last known repairer, it reads:
Repaired by
Ellis Lewis Guard Festiniog Railway,
38 Chapel Street Portmadoc
October 1947.
Interestingly the railway closed down in 1946, but I think that this gentleman was proud of the fact that he had worked on the Festiniog Railway!
Love it when i find this type of thing on a clock.
