Not Modernistic!
No-- this isn't a modernistic
clock design. It's a Telechron commercial wall model (1L312
-illuminated dial) ! It all happened this way: In the Ashland
factory, there's a large elevator operating between the basement and first
floor. Clocks were being hauled up in regular trays especially constructed
for such purposes. An employee pushed one off and lo!-- a new clock
design was born as shown in the picture! We don't recommend your
trying to stop elevators with Telechron clocks, but the fact remains...
this clock still runs merrily if not beautifully on!
(1936)
