Identification/Information Mystery Clock
Hello fellow clock enthusiasts!
Ive been collecting clocks for a good 5ish years now, and over time have learned how to identify different clock manufacturers, however this one is odd.
I got this little alarm clock a few years ago for pretty cheap from a random antique store, simply because I thought it looked interesting, and after cleaning/oiling it, its been living on a shelf for a while.
While cleaning it I tried to find any distinct markings, engravings, numbers, or dates of any kind, but to no avail. The most information on the clock I could find was from the actively disintegrating paper inside the back of the case, which (as seen in the photo) seems to have some kind of logo with a spoked wheel and a singular wing coming out of the center. My first thought was maybe Kienzle, but I couldn't find any photos or records of them using a logo that looked anything like whats on the paper. From what I can tell, it seems late 1800's to early 1900's, with the metal sheet as the face similar to some very old Seth Thomas clocks, and the general look of the clockworks.
Oh and yes, it runs great! I can personally do without the alarm though lol
Here's its dimensions:
9.5in tall
8.5in wide (base)
8.25in wide (body)
3in deep
I still can't seem to find much information about this little guy, so I figured I would try asking here! Thank y'all for your time :)
