Book 1,728 - Old Clocks by Edward Wenham

Description

Mr. Wenham’s approach to
Old Clocks
is that of a layman more than one who repairs or makes clocks. His explanation of clock mechanism is clear and free of technical jargon, and his descriptions of lantern clocks, bracket clocks and grandfather clocks, of detailed features of dials and hands, is written for the common man. His line drawings are much easier to understand than a picture.
There is also a list of 4000 European clockmakers. 174 pages. Hard cover with jacket. Copyright 1951. Excellent condition. – Book 1,728
