Winterthur boasts a premier collection of 90,000 decorative and fine arts objects made or used in America between 1640 and 1860. Its creator, Henry Francis du Pont (1880-1969), had a special interest in clocks, and he acquired many fine examples. Since his passing, more clocks have been added to the collection — now over 100. This conference will be the first at Winterthur to focus exclusively on its horological holdings. Some clocks not usually on display will be shown in a special exhibit. M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s Professor Thomas Allen, author of the 2008 book A Republic in Time, will give the James Arthur Lecture.

Charles Hummel, Donald Fennimore, Ann Wagner, Joshua Lane, and Lisa Minardi, current and emeritus Winterthur Museum curators, also will give presentations. Winterthur conservator Mark Anderson will describe his work on an important 18th-century Peter Stretch longcase clock acquired by the museum in 2004. Attendees will be welcomed by Winterthur Executive Director David Roselle.

SHOW AND TELL: Steve Watson showed a Tiffany carriage clock he received 15 years ago that has a Chinese battery movement in it. Eric Dostaler showed a 1959 Swiss-made cuckoo clock that has a boy climbing a ladder to reach his girlfriend in a window while being chased by the girl’s father carrying a pitchfork. Phil Keys showed a double mainspring, 8-day, Seth Thomas boiler room clock with a balance wheel escapement. Ed Serge brought a handmade, weight-driven early American banjo clock that is about 180 years old. It has a reverse painted glass and had been whittled out in a small shop. The maker is unknown. The early banjo clocks only have one wind hole at 2 o’clock. Bert Townsend showed an unusual clock signed “Schmidt” and an Enfield grandfather clock movement from London, which he had cleaned and found difficult to put back together. Bob Stoll found an old brass-plated ceiling lamp in an alley by a neighbor’s garbage can. He cut out a frame and, using his vast assortment of miscellaneous clock parts, put together a clock with a C-cell quartz movement. Unfortunately, after it was finished, the clock fell and the glass on the dial cracked. Bob also brought a voice recorder with a clock in it he purchased at a garage sale for 25 cents. —Roger Lehman M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s Ed Serge showed this American banjo clock that is around 180 years old at the February meeting of Chapter 52.

FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Ferdinand Geitner demonstrated how to successfully repair a broken fancy Vienna regulator minute hand. He gave the tools and material required and then aligned carefully the pieces and soldered them together. JANUARY MEETING: Forty members and five guests attended the meeting. The Chapter gained two new members. CHAPTER WORKSHOP:Virginia Norwood led a workshop on the helical springs used for various purposes to activate or restore levers in a movement. One should ascertain first whether each spring should be there at all. She brought a Gilbert curfew movement that has three bona fide springs as an example of the different functions of the springs.Various spring wire sizes were passed around, and the method of winding the wire to form the springs was demonstrated. JANUARY PROGRAM: Rodney Baker gave the story of the restoration of the Santa Barbara Courthouse clock and the transformation of the clock room. The Seth Thomas tower clock movement was purchased in 1929, but without bells. Bells would have been too heavy for the platform to be used. The time movement was used for approximately 80 years to drive hands on the four dials of the tower. After this time many parts of the clock were severely worn, and a complete overhaul was in order. Chapter members undertook the clock restoration in 2011. In addition to the clock movement restoration, another group decided to clear out the room that had been accumulating unrelated “junk” and make a gallery of the enclosing room. Because the room was easily accessible by stairs and elevator, it was decided that the walls would be decorated with a painting of the history of telling time from Stonehenge to Seth Thomas starting his own company. Many boxes of parts pertaining to the chime and strike trains were stashed in the courthouse basement. A few of these parts had been used through the years when similar parts had worn, but they were essentially intact. These were cleaned and polished to provide signals for striking and starting chimes. For the reasons mentioned above, the bell sounds are provided by recordings of the Stork Tower chimes at University of California at Santa Barbara. These have proved to be so realistic that listeners have not detected the difference. The clock weights are lifted by motors, and the movement trains are inspected and cleaned monthly. Bryan Mumford has been central to the regulation of the clock and has fitted it with monitors based on the MicroSet™. He has found that the clock keeps time within one second a month. Rodney guides visitors through the gallery and describes the clock and the murals. Interested groups can make an appointment to take the tour. —Sue Gary 23 do Springs Street Car Museum on a McClintock street clock. Much of the restoration has been accomplished: works cleaned and running; replacement chimes found, installed, and now striking; and new glass added to the case. The second project recently started is work on the University of Denver’s observatory clocks. Ken Gfeller, Charles Daldry, Bill Dillon, and others have cleaned the sidereal clock and it is now running. Some pivot work needs to be done on one of the other clocks. SHOW AND TELL: Along with other assorted items, members brought three interesting German watch movements, an English cylinder movement, and a ¾-size Parkinson and Frodsham marine chronometer. JANUARY PROGRAM: Members watched an NAWCC video Disassembly and Reassembly of a Swiss Watch Movement by Ken Pell, which showed the steps and techniques for disassembling and reassembling a Swiss watch movement. —Doug Fowler CONNECTICUT M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s 148.

FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Chapter members were instructed to come prepared to speak for about five minutes on a topic of horological interest that started with the letters A to E. The presenters came from varied backgrounds: two physicians, a pipe fitter, a dentist, an organic chemist, an industrial chemist, a woodworker and author, a clockmaker, and a watch collector. Their topics were equally diverse and interesting: Atmos clock: how and why it works using Ethyl chloride (scoring double points for additional letter use) Anelemma: a diagrammatical representation of the difference between mean solar time and true solar time (i.e., equation of time) Balance bench: a unique tool to support the balance wheel of a watch during repair Cousin: how a family relative first introduced the presenter to horology Chauncey Jerome: the ups and downs of this clockmaker and businessman Clutch on Morbier fan: the importance of having slippage occur in the fan to prevent wear on the pivot of the preceding wheel Dashboard clock on an antique car: restoring a dashboard clock that behaves more like an oversized pocket watch Deck watch: a watch that was used by Navy sailors in World War II Electronic rotors: how to service a telechron rotor used in electric clocks Electric railway watches: pocket watches used by trolley system employees that kept the trolleys operating on time The successful meeting illustrated the depth and breadth of the members’ knowledge and increased anticipation for a future meeting to challenge members. JANUARY MEETING: Members met January 27. JANUARY PROGRAM: Kim Jovinelli, curator of the National Watch and Clock Museum in Columbia, PA, gave a presentation about the Museum. She appreciates the intricacies and artwork that goes into the creation of timepieces. The Museum has an international collection that encompasses timepieces from Asia, Europe, and North America. The collection has been enhanced over the years through the generosity of patrons, NAWCC members, and acquisitions. Kim believes that through these clocks and watches we can document our history. She answered questions during and after her informal presentation. —John Riabov 25 M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s Chapter 154 member Ken Hogwood stands at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England, which he and other NAWCC members toured in 2014. 26 151.

CHAPTER CONTEST: Bob Couch won first place with a three-piece French clock; Bruce Forman won second place with a Swinger clock and third place with a Roosevelt clock. FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Bruce Forman presented a workshop titled “How to Re-pivot a Clock Shaft.” Bruce used his Levin lathe to show how to re-pivot clock shafts. He identified the steel used in different shafts from American, French, German, and older tallcase clocks. He also showed different methods to hold the shafts while drilling and turning the new pivot. Several types of steady rests are necessary for re-pivoting. He explained how they work and the advantages and disadvantages of each type. A good drilling tail stock is helpful to have when re-pivoting, but a simple pin vise can also accom- KANSAS 36.

SUNFLOWER CLOCK WATCHERS LOCATION: Woodland United Methodist Church, Pathfinders Room, second floor, 1100 W. 15th St. N, Wichita KS 67203 WHEN: First Friday of each month, 7 p.m. MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION: Mark Will, 1532 Amarado Court, Wichita, KS 67212 EMAIL: [email protected] 28 FEBRUARY MEETING: Members met February 5. FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Mark Will gave a presentation about the American Clock and Watch Museum in Bristol, CT, which he and his family toured while they were in the Boston area. The Old Mass State House had a Simon Willard clock in the top of the building. It was not very accurate because it lost about seven minutes a week. Hanging on the balcony in the Old South Meeting House was a reproduction of a Simon Willard gilt, eagle-topped clock. The original clock, with an unmarked Simon Willard movement, was moved to Old South Church when the Puritan congregation relocated, and a reproduction was placed in the Old South Meeting House. A similar Simon Willard clock also exists in the White House. The Old North Church has a clock made in 1726 by Avery & Bennett, which is believed to be the oldest continuously running American-made clock in the United States. The American Watch and Clock Museum was started on October 24, 1954, and now is home to the largest—more than 1,500 pieces—collection of American-made clocks in the world. Mark showed pictures of many of the clocks and watches, including an original sign of Daniel Burnap to whom Eli Terry was an apprentice; a vertical black sign with gold leaf lettering for “E. Ingraham Co.” found in the attic of the house of Elias Ingraham’s grandson, William S. Ingraham; a Howard & Chapter 63 member Ted Hand gave a presentation about pinwheel escapements in the January meeting. Davis astronomical clock bought in 1905; and Howard Cosmic 24-hour clock. The case of the Howard Cosmic clock looked like a Howard 70, but it had a window on each hour that showed Roman numerals for hours 1-12 and Arabic numerals for hours 13-24. Mark also visited the gravesites, took photographs, and recorded the GPS coordinates of several eighteenth- and nineteenth-century clockmakers who are buried in Bristol. The American Watch and Clock Museum’s website includes a video tour of its artifacts. JANUARY MEETING: Members met January 8. JANUARY PROGRAM: Ted Hand gave an interesting detailed presentation on pinwheel escapements. He showed pictures of the Hancock Meeting House in Hancock, NH, a huge building with a high steeple that housed a large four-sided E. Howard clock. The Hancock Meeting House has a semicircle barn on the back side that people could rent out stalls for their horse and carriages. Ted showed pictures of his Ansonia No. 16 jeweler’s regulator with a pinwheel escapement and told the story of how J.D. was driving through Winfield, KS, and saw the case on someone’s front porch. The owners were in the process of putting shelves in the case, but J.D. stopped them before they damaged the case. He wanted to buy it and they agreed on a price. Later, J.D. sold the case to Ted, who received help from Scott Childs to find a pinwheel movement for the case. It is hanging and running well. Ted explained how air density affects a clock, so he checked the air density and adjusted the time accordingly. The inventor of the pinwheel escapement is uncertain. Some say Jean A. LePaute of Paris in 1753; others say Frenchman Louis Avant from Morbier, France, in 1741. Morbier is very close to the Swiss border. Most pinwheel escapements were made in France or Switzerland. However, Waterbury Clock Co. in its 1891 catalog stated that it made this pinwheel escapement for its regulators, and Seth Thomas Clock Co. made many of its early tower clocks with pinwheel escapements. Most pinwheel escapements are not marked, and almost all pinwheel escapements used in jeweler’s regulators are housed in a metal box. Instead of teeth the escape wheel has pins out horizontally at right angles to the face of the wheel; these fall on pallets with concentric circular locking faces, set one above the other, with lifting faces nearly opposite each other. This escapement was used in many French regulators and tower clocks, but its popularity declined largely because keeping it oiled is difficult. Ted explained the details of the seconds pendulum. Ted cautioned pinwheel escapement clock owners to stop the clock if they are away for a long time instead of just letting it run down. The pendulum is so heavy that it can bend pins if the clock runs down. Most jeweler’s regulators with a pinwheel escapement have a sweep second hand. —Jim Price JANUARY MEETING: Members met January 16. Newly elected President Terry Downs introduced herself and told of her interest in clocks and watches and how she learned to repair timepieces by starting as an apprentice and gaining years of experience. The other Chapter officers were presented: Steve Barnes, vice president; Nick Bonura, treasurer; Mary Locantro, secretary; and Joe Orth, Ann Boyd, and Warren George, directors. JANUARY PROGRAM: The show and tell program featured carriage clocks. On display were a dual-function carriage clock with a timepiece on one side and a barometer-compass on the other side; a mini-mini clock with an enameled case in its original leather carrying case; and a super fine mini-carriage clock with a champlevé finish, beveled glasses, and a rare design of the columns and handle. Several members contributed interesting information about carriage clocks. One of the newer Chapter members said one of the reasons he joined the Creole Chapter was to learn how to repair clocks. The NAWCC’s books, videos, and websites were discussed, and Nick Bonura volunteered to present workshops at future meetings on inspecting, disassembling, cleaning, bushing, and reassembling clock movements. NOVEMBER REGIONAL REPORT: The Great Southern Regional, hosted by the Chapter in November, was a success. NAWCC Board member Jay Holloway and his wife, Pat, gave some interesting programs, including “A History of the Welch Clock Company”, “The Key to Discovery: A Long and Winding Road”, and “Statue Bronzing Techniques.” Outgoing Chapter President Louis Boyd brought his monkey organ, and after cranking out several old favorite musical tunes, The monkey organ that outgoing Chapter 43 President Louis Boyd brought to the Southern Regional in November provided fun entertainment for members.

The exhibit titled New Orleans Horology showed newspaper advertisements and business cards of New Orleans jewelers from 1853 to 1908, which bought, sold, and repaired clocks, watches, and music boxes. Another part showed pictures of clocks, watches, and silverware signed “M. Scooler,” which were sold in his store on world famous Canal Street. Scooler established his business in 1842 and was the sole agent in New Orleans for selling Walter Durfee grandfather clocks and fine Patek Philippe watches. Also featured were products by New Orleans clock and watchmaker, Stanislaus Fournier, who came from Paris, France, in 1841 to install a large clock in a New Orleans hotel. He loved the city and decided to live in New Orleans where for the next 30 years he ran a clock and watch business at 60 Royal St. in the French Quarter. Other exhibit items included a Baird clock advertising United States Five Cigars Co. and a Baird clock advertising Jackson Square Cigars Co. Both clock cases contained the name “S. Hernsheim Bro’s & Co. New Orleans”, owner of the two cigar companies. Other exhibit items included the New Orleans model of the Seth Thomas city series; pictures of the pocket watch made by American Watch Co. and presented in 1858 to the World Chess Champion Paul Morphy of New Orleans; and a 5" diameter tower clock dial made of cypress wood that was in the original New Orleans Cotton Exchange Building built in 1883. —Nick Bonura 29 MARYLAND 141.

SHOW AND TELL: Twelve members participated in the show and tell program. Wheeler Green described the unusual instructions that came with an NEC World Time Clock he purchased that advised the purchaser to shake the clock if it doesn’t run, and sure enough that’s what was needed. Frank Goad brought two Elgin railroad grade pocket watches, one 18-size and the other 16-size, and described in detail their near exact characteristics, including the unusual 3/4 rear movement plate on the 18-size watch. This type of backplate was used exclusively on the 16-size watches making them easier to repair, but the 18-size watches normally had a full backplate. Tom Mostyn showed some unusual alarm clocks, a $1 pocket watch still in its original packaging, a Parker mini-pendulum clock that adjusts through a small hole in the bottom of the case, a New Haven clock with the hands outside the glass, a mini-tambour clock, and two Sessions & Fynetune clocks from Lancaster, PA. Al Bush showed an alarm clock with a laminated wood fiber case and a movement that had very little brass. This unusual production process was used by clock manufacturers during World War II because they were limited to using 7 lbs of brass per 1,000 clocks to conserve the metal for the war effort. Gordon Beglin showed his Seth Thomas senora chime clock with the chime-winding hole hidden by the bezel. Mel Kornspan recounted his childhood days when his dad worked at the Navy Yard in the District of Columbia and brought home an old dry cell battle lantern. Mel found a similar one that had been converted to a clock, which some members said qualified it as a carriage clock because it had a handle. George Hudson had a request for information on a pair of pliers with ridges on the outside faces, which some members recognized as a tool for expanding watch bows for easier removal. Lou Orsini showed his circa 1920s Seth Thomas Coast Guard ship’s clock and pointed out the features of these earlier maritime timepieces. Joe Abrams brought a circa turn of the twentieth century Zeno Gum Co. machine with a wood case that operated off a clock mechanism which dispensed a stick of gum after triggered by an inserted penny. Neil Amrine brought a French windup alarm clock that his wife found for $3 in a thrift shop. 30 Ron Gaskins shared a story about how he modified his Twelve members participated in the show and tell program in the January meeting of Chapter 141. alarm clock when he was delivering newspapers in his teens. To ensure he wouldn’t sleep through the alarm, he tied a cord from the winding key to a pot. When the alarm went off, the string wound onto the key and pulled the pot off the table and made a loud noise. Dan Weber told the story of how he became the proud owner of a marvelous reproduction of a 5' tall Howard No. 6 figure 8 wall clock, which was being offered at auction as an authentic piece. —Lou Orsini MASSACHUSETTS 8.

He covered all aspects of how this watch works and the tools and technical documents used to repair it. More advanced repair procedures, such as replacing the balance staff, commonsense adjustments to the escapement, and regulating the timekeeping, were also discussed. Marty Cohen presented “Time, History, Philosophy, and Art.” Views of time have changed as the accuracy of our ability to measure it has improved. Tom McIntyre gave a talk titled “The Employee’s Own Watch.” He focused on the practice at Waltham that encouraged employees to develop their skills by purchasing material at cost and making their own watches. This practice was in place starting in the 1850s, and Tom featured an especially interesting example from the late 1880s. either solid gold or silver cases. These new gold-filled cases were displayed at the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, where the jewelers and the public learned about them. Domestically produced watchcases increased the demand for these new gold-filled cases, and companies expanded their production. By 1920 watchcase manufacturing capacity was double that of watch movement manufacturing. Even though pocket watch case production declined, wristwatch case production increased. However, the watchcase business suffered the same fate as watch movement businesses because of competition from imported Swiss watches. —Andy Dervan Program presenters at the February meeting of Chapter 8 were, from left, Marty Cohen, Tom McIntyre, and Chris Carey. IN MEMORY OF: Longtime Chapter 8 member Ron Flodman passed away on January 28. Ron’s clock interest was primarily in antique wooden cases, and he had an impressive workshop to carry out restoration work. He bought many old clocks and worked on the cases and finishes to achieve nicely restored appearances. —Les Tyrala MICHIGAN 6.

Members watched the process of making an Elgin pocket watch, including damascening, poising, hairspring making, mainspring making, and turning of balance shafts. UPCOMING EVENT: The theme for the Mid-America Regional in September will be reverse painted tablet clocks. Look for upcoming promotions and schedule. IN MEMORY OF: Ed Gardlik passed away recently. Members voted to send a donation to the NAWCC in memory of Ed. —Craig Sebald Tom Morris showed the Kroeber umbra figural mantel clock he restored at the February meeting of Chapter 6. M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s FEBRUARY MEETING: Thirty-five members, spouses, and guests attended the February 21 meeting at Plymouth Museum. The Chapter welcomed new member Larry Young. Members brought various clocks, watches, tools, books, and miscellaneous items for sale, and many items were sold. Pat Walsh won the 50-50 raffle. The Chapter thanked the volunteers who provide refreshments and cleanup for each meeting. SHOW AND TELL: Tom Morris presented his restored Kroeber umbra figural mantel clock. It was missing the feet, bezel, bottom, back, gong, and case decorations. He acquired or made the missing parts and refinished the figure to turn the almost basket case clock into a very attractive mantel clock. FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Andy Dervan gave a program titled “A Pictorial View of American Watchcase Companies,” covering eight watchcase factories. He discussed the industry’s beginning in small shops in Philadelphia and New York with larger companies formed by mergers. James Boss’s US patent in 1859 for the process of spinning gold-filled materials into watchcases was a breakthrough, because it allowed companies to produce a lower-cost, more durable case than 26.

LANG MEMORIAL LOCATION:Various restaurants in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area WHEN: Third Saturday of odd-numbered months MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION: Darold Hanson, 16621 Gunflint Trail, Lakeville, MN 55044 EMAIL: [email protected] JANUARY MEETING: Fifty-one members and guests atended the January 16 dinner and business meeting at Gulden’s Restaurant in Maplewood, MN. Richard and Sally Zielike served as hosts, Philip Drexler conducted a mart, and Jeff Pomeroy provided horological books as door prizes. President Gary Anderson presided over the meeting. JANUARY PROGRAM: Greg Smith hosted the Annual Restoration Projects, which are presented by several members. Gary Anderson presented two watches: a Hamilton 937 and a Hamilton 938. Gary purchased the 18-size, 17-jewel, railroad grade, hunter-case model 937 in a tin can as parts. It required obtaining missing parts, including jewels. Gary also vibrated a hairspring. The rare, 18-size, 17-jewel model 938 has a highly polished movement and a unique regulator not found on other Hamiltons. Gary also replaced missing parts and vibrated a hairspring. Garth Antila presented two clocks. First was a bracket clock that had water damage and was missing veneer and a delaminated door. Figuring out the maker was a bit of a challenge; it appears to be a Herschede circa 1901-1906 retailed by J. B. Hudson. Second was a high-quality 400-day disk pendu- lum anniversary clock that had rust and corrosion issues and required a lot of polishing to get rid of pitting. Determining the maker was again a bit of an adventure; it appears to be a Jahresuhrenfabrik circa 1902-1903. Rich Goodin presented a watch and a clock. Purchased as parts, the watch was a combination chronograph and repeater that had a lot of issues and required machining parts, modifying pallet stones, fitting a balance staff, a roller table, and a balance wheel; and poising the balance. It is still not quite finished, but he will persevere. The clock was a circa late 1800s to early 1900s French carriage clock with a cylinder platform escapement again purchased as parts in a box. Restoration included dovetailing a new tooth on a gear, machining a new pinion, and fitting new hands. It seems to have been made for the UK market. Ron Widenhofer presented a black Sessions mantel clock with four columns as parts in a box, but most of the parts were there. The clock had dents in the woodwork, water damage, and other corrosion issues. Ron cleaned the case with mineral oil and 2500 grit paper, filled the dents with plastic wood, and cleaned the paper dial and the brass bezel. He touched up the gold filigree, replaced two missing columns, and gave the case 10-12 coats of automotive lacquer. Susan Wood presented an unfinished custom-designed globe moon clock that features several unique elements, such as a two-piece hand-forged globe and uprights. Each of the feet will be a forged dragon’s foot design, and it will have a torsion pendulum and be weight driven with a rate of 430 beats per hour. Richard Zielike presented a 1911 ornately carved cuckoo clock with a dirty movement, an escape wheel that needed work, and a missing pendulum. Polishing one of the pivots was tricky because there was little to hang on to, and the bellows needed to be restored. With help from Terry Jones, Richard tackled these issues. Dave Ault presented a circa 1820 Eli Terry pillar and scroll solid mahogany and mahogany veneer clock with a wooden movement. His grandfather had restored parts by making new wood hands and new finials. It still keeps accurate time and is wound counterclockwise. —Steve Scidmore 14. ST.

Avena Ave., Lodi, CA 95240; 209.369.5833 EMAIL: [email protected] FEBRUARY MEETING: Twenty members and ten guests met February 6 in the home of Ken and Donna Erlenbusch in Lodi, CA. The Chapter anticipates that five of the guests will become members. New members David and Linda Widmer of Fallon, NV, were unable to attend. President Vince Angell presided over the meeting. He thanked Ken, Donna, and their family for their wonderful hospitality, and he gave updates on NAWCC activities. SHOW AND TELL: NAWCC member and meeting guest Ron Hoops showed a Seth Thomas shelf clock that he purchased in a box from Vince Angell in 1988. Still in the box, Ron sold the clock to a neighbor in 1991. Then in 1993, Ron purchased the clock back and began restoring the basket case. Most amazing was the refinishing and hand graining that Ron did to restore the top of the case in lieu of re-veneering. Guest Joe Soares showed a one-of-a-kind pocket watch movement, marked “Albert H. Potter” from the Boston area, 34 displayed in a stand. At some time in the watch’s history, its original gold hunter case was removed. The watch is a 29-33-jewel movement and was handmade by Albert H. Potter. Guest Glen Soares also showed an unusual Ansonia alarm clock with a wood-carved base and an oriental design. Vince showed a handmade cartouche No. 3. The original number came off a walnut French wall clock. The original cartouche was badly damaged, and the new cartouche was made by Ben Beede. Ben actually took a piece of plastic, carved it in the original shape, painted it to a high-gloss white and then painted the “III” onto it. No one could tell which number was replaced. GROW YOUR CHAPTER TIPS: The Chapter continues to grow by encouraging folks to join the NAWCC and then inviting new members to Chapter meetings. These efforts continue to be successful. FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Ken Erlenbusch gave a program on the making of bronzes starting with lost wax casting and then the extensive process of burnishing the bronze to its final beauty. Ken passed around a selection of old hand tools used in the burnishing process on both bronzes with clocks and fire gilding of clocks with statues. These tools were used to “polish” or highlight the gold on both the statues and many early French clocks. IN MEMORY OF: Longtime member Dorothy Soares passed away in January of this year. Dorothy and her late husband, Robert Soares, were members of the NAWCC and charter members of Sierra Nevada Chapter 65. The passing of Dorothy and Robert Soares is the passing of an era. Dot and Bob were instrumental in the success of Chapter 65. On a happier note though, Glen Soares, son, and Joseph Soares, grandson, are planning to join the Chapter. —Vince Angell NEW MEXICO 106.

FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Randy Garner, former president of the Chapter, gave a hands-on presentation on his restoration of a Birge Mallory and Co. clock with a triple-decker case and an 8-day strap brass weight-driven movement. The parts were loose in a box when he bought it. Birge was mostly a wagon builder before he joined Mallory. Mallory worked as a woodworker with Chauncey Jerome & Brother before he joined Birge. Birge and Mallory were together from 1837 to 1842. The dial for the clock is painted wood and the case has a detailed reverse painted glass. The clock’s feet are a replacement and not exact. Members checked out the details of the movement, case, and dial. —Dwight Auten Steve Sadowski discussed Royal Vienna porcelain clocks at the March meeting of Chapter 2. porcelain motifs and styles and showed what to look for when buying these clocks and how to determine their age, along with other interesting facts about their history. Steve answered many questions, and attendees thanked him for sharing his extensive knowledge with them. —Lu Sadowski Chapter 106 President Bob Sherman stands with the Birge Mallory and Co. clock that Randy Garner restored and showed in the February meeting of Chapter 106. NEW YORK MARCH MEETING: Members met at the Temple Emanu-EL. The mart room had lots of activity among the members and the usual delicious breakfast buffet. MARCH PROGRAM: Chapter 2’s Steve Sadowski presented a fascinating lecture on Royal Vienna porcelain clocks. The presentation began with Marco Polo when he returned from China to Florence, Italy, with china porcelain and the trade secrets on how to manufacture lovely porcelain. The trade secrets spread from Florence to other parts of Europe, and soon several were producing usable products. Steve identified the earliest versions of this type of clock from 1850 to after 1900. On display were different examples of Royal Vienna porcelain clocks from his private collection. He explained the different JANUARY MEETING: Forty-four members and guests attended the meeting. The Chapter agreed to make donations to the American Watch and Clock Museum in Bristol, CT, and to the NAWCC in Columbia, PA, for the restoration of an Ansonia tower clock. SHOW AND TELL: Members brought several interesting finds, including a pillar and scroll clock, an early Japanese clock, and an Ithaca calendar clock. Horological items were auctioned off. JANUARY PROGRAM: Chapter member and Ansonia clock authority Kevin Cole gave an informative presentation about Ansonia clocks and the history of the Ansonia Clock Co. Ansonia manufactured an extensive line of mantel, shelf, and wall clocks, including elaborately painted porcelain-cased clocks, crystal regulators, beehive clocks, ogee clocks, and elaborate wood- and iron-cased clocks. Ansonia was also well known for its weight-driven wall regulators, watches, and novelty items, including swinging clocks with figurines. As with many early nineteenth-century American clock companies, such as Gilbert, Ingraham, Waterbury, and Seth Thomas, Ansonia had its roots in Connecticut. In the mid-1840s, Ansonia Brass Co. was formed to supply rolled-brass clock movements, which had largely replaced wooden movements, to several clock manufacturers in Connecticut. Ansonia Clock Co. was formed as a subsidiary of Ansonia Brass Co. in 1850 35 M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s 2.

In the mid-1870s Ansonia was spun off from the brass component of the company and moved most of its production to New York. A second factory opened in Brooklyn, but it burned down in 1880. It was rebuilt and reopened in 1881. Shortly thereafter the Connecticut manufacturing operations closed. Ansonia’s business continued to expand and the company reached its peak around 1915 with large US and international sales. However, the effects of World War I and strong competition, coupled with poor business decisions, led to its demise, and in 1929 the tooling and machinery were sold to Amtorg Trading Corp., the Soviet Union’s US trading company. In 1969 the rights to the Ansonia trademark were repatriated to the United States by Ansonia Clock Co., Inc. of Lynnwood, WA.

Bob Byroads showed his Goliath Swiss 8-day pocket watch made circa 1900-1920. It is equivalent to about a size 40 in pocket watch terms. Greg Smith brought a time-only Sessions regulator in need of a calendar ring. He also brought a Wilton positioner that he uses for a movement holder. Allan Wolff showed a Junghans Westminster bracket clock that he purchased at the Wichita MKOA Regional as a restoration project. JANUARY PROGRAM: Greg Smith demonstrated his techniques for replacing cuckoo clock bellows. Greg uses bellows material from a clock supplier and cuts it to fit the existing whistle. Some of the tools he uses are a razor blade, small scissors, and glue. Greg’s work looks just as professional as the bellows from clock supply houses, and he estimates his time making them is worth about 73 cents per hour. —Allan Wolf had unusual bezels;Virginia LaFond, a watch bought by Ed LaFond for her at the 1968 National Convention in Philadelphia; Will LaFond, a brass clock backplate from a Joseph Hollingshead clock that had what will believes was a practice engraving of the moon on it; George Morrison, an unusual uncased Hamilton model 974 in unfinished condition that may have been a prototype because there was no serial number; and Frank Harchuska, a former Sidney Advertising clock that may have come through the Johnstown flood and was used by the Remorse Club in 1889 (the date was on the glass) and his detective work in sleuthing out the truth on this interesting piece of history.

SOUTHWESTERN LOCATION: Pok-E-Jo’s restaurant, 2121 Parmer Lane, Austin, TX 78727 WHEN: Fourth Saturday of each month MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION: Pat Holloway EMAIL: [email protected] WEBSITE: www.nawcc-chapter15.org FEBRUARY MEETING: Members met February 20. FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Pat Holloway gave a presentation titled “The Elgin National Watch Co.:Their History and Their Advertising.” From its beginning it filled the West’s need for a watch company. Much of Elgin’s early success was due to strong financial backing, business-savvy founders, and very knowledgeable, skilled craftsmen. Many of the craftsmen were from the American Watch Co. in Waltham, MA, or other successful watch companies. The company was founded as National Watch Co. of Chicago, IL; however, before any watches were produced, the name was shortened to National Watch Co. Early advertising focused on building name recognition, but the watches had “Elgin, Illinois” etched on the movement, the almanac included the name “Elgin,” and people referred to “those watches from Elgin.” So the name was officially changed to Elgin National Watch Co. Throughout its history, the company used creative and innovative advertising. Several names appeared in relation to this advertising: Hulburd, who was a president of the company, and Roy Rutherford Bailey. Several ad campaigns wove togeth- Participants in a recent Chapter 124 class taught by Mark Vozar were, from left standing, Gary Coffman, David Miller, Donald Bush, instructor Mark, Will Slough, and Tim Brownlee.

A large bushing for the main wheel arbor helped to solidify the repair. The punched holes required bushings to restore true round holes, and the plates were sanded with fine sandpaper to provide a bright smooth finish after the repairs. The final stage was to return the clock and adjust the bell strike, so the owner would not be disturbed. The owners were pleased with the restoration. —Pat Holloway 124.

Main St., Grapevine, TX 76051 WHEN: See website for details MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION: Gene Meysenburg, 214.328.1984 EMAIL: [email protected] WEBSITE: www.chapter124.com REGIONAL REPORT: Chapter 124 hosted the 2016 Lone Star Regional at the Mesquite Convention Center in Mesquite, TX, on March 4 and 5; 564 registrants attended and 332 tables were sold, making this year’s Regional one of the best! REGIONAL PROGRAM: John Evans, Peter Crum, and Hugh Slough organized an Art Deco Exhibit with more than 75 clocks and other items from that distinctive era. Peter, a longtime Chapter 124 member, gave the keynote address; other talks and demonstrations included case refinishing by Dee Koch, spindle turning by John Horn, antique American glass by Don Bugh, and a hands-on demonstration of bluing by Bruce Wooldridge. Mike Dempsey taught a pre-Regional class titled “Hairsprings 2” and gave an interesting perspective on the uses of 3-D printing in horology. Cathy Slough presided over the children’s table on Saturday, with horological activities for young people who attended. John and a crew of volunteers brought a truck full of clocks and tools, among other items for the Thursday evening silent M AY/ J U N E 2 016 N AWC C M a r t & H i g h l i g h t s er magazines, newspapers, poster stamps, and booklets. The ads leveraged the “Timed by the Stars” theme based on the company’s observatory. The Captain Tick-Mouse series focused on children while leveraging the adult-centered materials and the “Time-Telling Through the Ages” campaign incorporated the Tick-Mouse booklets, poster, stamps, magazine ads, and two paperback books by Bailey and told the company’s history through color pictures and stories. In addition to print ads, Elgin leveraged several world’s fairs for advertising. Its greatest visibility was at the 1933 Century of Progress Fair in Chicago and the 1939 New York Fair. In addition to its exhibit in 1933, Elgin had a signal from the observatory transmitted each day to the fair, resulting in time balls falling to signal the start. The 1939 exhibit included a replica of the observatory and a history of timekeeping through the ages. Members contributed stories of businesses where working conditions and regulations were similar to those found in Elgin. JANUARY MEETING: Members met January 16. JANUARY PROGRAM: Jay Holloway gave a program on the restoration of an American tallcase clock attributed to Benjamin Cheney, who had a student named Benjamin Willard, the clockmaker who trained his younger brother, Simon Willard. Somewhere in the clock’s life, a key area on the front plate was cut out and later soldered back into place. Whether the cutout was done originally or at a later time no one knows, but there seems to be no logical reason for the damage. The cut area going through the middle of the strike side main wheel arbor and later next to the standoff holding the rack in place, which was screwed into the plate, created major structural problems. The family bought the clock more than 100 years ago, and when the clock would not stop striking, they wanted it restored. Other damage to the clock included pivot holes that had been punched and closed with a chisel, which left many large holes and gashes on the plates, front and back. Restoration required extensive time and effort soldering the cutout and 39 auction and for the regular live auction on Friday evening. Bidding was lively and every item found a new home. Convention Director Bruce Wooldridge, Mike Granderson, and Joe and Mark Richards came with several truckloads of items for both the It’s-For-Free and Let’s Make a Deal tables. The International 400-Day Clock Chapter (Chapter 168) met as part of the Lone Star Regional. At the Friday evening banquet President Kelsey Downum welcomed everyone to the 2016 Regional. Tim Orr, the NAWCC National representative, gave an informative report focused on National activities to stabilize existing membership and to build new membership. Then, Tim announced the recipients of this year’s NAWCC Certificates of Appreciation. John Acker gave an update on the 2017 NAWCC National Convention to be held in Arlington, TX.

FEBRUARY PROGRAM: Richard Newman gave a presentation titled “Robert Leslie Remembered:The Untold Story of an Important Early American Watch & Clock Inventor.” Robert Leslie’s story is truly an American tale. Coming from the humblest of circumstances in rural Maryland, Leslie was a self-taught clock maker and watchmaker, who made his way to Philadelphia and worked with America’s most revered statesmen and inventors, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin. Obliterated from history by a catastrophic fire that destroyed his records in the 1830s, Leslie received the first clock and watch patents in America, and his inventions amazingly still influence makers today. This presentation culminates two years of research and tells the “rags to riches to rags” story of perhaps greatest American clock and watch inventor of his era and includes an exhibit of his patents and a rare surviving watch. —Marion Krajewski North Coast Regional May 20 – 21, 2016 .

Call for Nominations to the Board of Directors and to the NEC for the 2017–2021 Term This is a call for nominations for NAWCC’s elected positions to the Board of Directors and the Nominating and Elections Committee (NEC) to be filled in the January-March 2017 election. The term begins in June 2017. Four elected director positions and one elected NEC position will be filled. All are four-year terms. All candidates will be interviewed by the current NEC to confirm their eligibility under these requirements. Candidates may be nominated in several ways. Interested parties may self-nominate, be nominated by another member, or be nominated by the NEC. Nomination by petition also is possible; this method requires 250 member signatures with valid membership numbers. The Bylaws specify there must be at least two but not more than five nominated candidates placed on the ballot for each open position. If a total of more than five Board nominations are received for each open position, the list will be screened and reduced to five by an NEC review of qualifications. All candidates nominated by petition will be placed on the ballot. The election ballot will be distributed 75-120 days prior to April 1, 2017, by methods determined by the NEC. All ballots must be received no later than midnight April 1, 2017. No later than June 30, 2016, completed nomination forms and petitions can be mailed to NAWCC, Inc., Attn.: Steve Humphrey, 514 Poplar St., Columbia, PA 17512-2130; emailed to [email protected]; or faxed to 717.684.0878. A similar call for nominations to fill appointed Director positions will appear in the November/December 2016 issue of the Watch & Clock Bulletin. The Board will appoint two Directors from this second group of nominees. The same nomination form will be used, and it may be completed now, if you wish. The petition option may not be used for appointment nominees.
