Downtown Bristol Clock Gets a Facelift 3-29-21
For the past 4 years, the clock has undergone a number of updates, from the internal workings to installation of new glass. Previous Town Clerk Mary Ryman had wanted to see the clock updated, and she began the plans to do so. After she retired, Deputy Clerk Jill Swartz followed up to finish the project and finally get the gold lettering "Town of Bristol" replaced. In Sept. 1989, Ameritrust National Bank Michiana & Mike Stoll of Reproductions Technologies (who had bought the old store building in 1977 and ran his business there until 2008), got a quote to have clock installed and donated to the town in 1989. Stoll made a request Oct 12, 1989 to install it in front of his building, and the Town had no objection. The clock was originally made by the Verdin Co. of Cincinnati Ohio. Air Brush of Cincinnati, a contractor of Verdin Co. was selected in 2021 to restore the lettering. Artist Barbara Kelsey, and her husband Don, owners of Air Brush of Cincinnati and affiliates of Verdin, came to Bristol on Monday, March 29, 2021, to do the work on a chilly afternoon. Once again, the old clock welcomes passersby on SR 120 to the Town of Bristol. Just the Facts: The “Old Store” is a relic of the riverboat era. Located high on the bank overlooking the St. Joseph River since the 1840’s, The building was once known as the H.B. App & Sons Co and sold a variety of items, Later known as the King Store, residents remember shopping forgroceries there until the early 1970s. After Stoll closed his business in 2008, Stoned Soup Emporium opened a soda fountain and antique and crafters business until 2013. The building was then sold to a new owner.
Have had one of those days. Couldn't wait to get home, close the door to the world, spend some time with my girls, get them to bed and open the wine.

The highly architectural shape of this portico clock and its design elements were often found in the furnishings typical of the style that developed under Napoleon's reign, inspired by Percier and Fontaine's architectural drawings. Two piers support an entablature upon which is seated a figure of Cupid holding two chained lions: this motif is a reprise of the Romanesque house front, attesting to the decorator's antique tastes. The piers are decorated with a pair of gaines, each bearing a head characteristic of the prevailing craze for all things Egyptian. The Shiny metal ornaments emerging from a mat bronze ground are also from the period's decorative vocabulary: masks, animals driving chariots pulled by other animals and allegorical winged figures. The enamel clock face bears the name of the clockmaker, Jacquet, who was based in Gisors, Normandy.
I have now gotten into making clocks on second.
This is my first one.
