Germany's Older Clock Factories Their Trade Marks and Dates of Manufacture

by E. D. Bush ond Chorles Terwilliger with greot ossistonce from E. J. Tyler

One of the most frequently asked questions directed to "The Answer Box" during the past several years is how to identify the manufacturer of a clock from a trade mark found on the movement back plate, on a paper Iabel, or baked on an enamel dial. cerned .i.r'ith Gerrnan made clocks. The reason, undoubtedly, is that hundreds of thousands of late 19th Century and early 20th Century socalled Vienna Regulattlrs (1-, 2-, and 3-weight), free su:inger wooden wall clocks, and mantel cloeks, have been imported into the United States by wholesale antique importers, It is not

ningen, etc. Each factory had its in-

Most of these questions were

con-

dividuai tr"ade marks. Today, only the old-timers kno,lv where some of these factories once stood. Several members have helped to compile the list as it now stands, but the bulk of the information came from E. J. Tyler in England who has done
extensive research on European clocks
one illustrated article to. thaBuLLETIN,

including those made in the Black Forest. He has already contributed

at all uncommon for an entire container of these clocks to be sold to big dealers, particularly in the South sight unseen! Many have ended -up in the collections of our members. Practically aII of these clocks lr-ere made in or near: the Black Forest by
many large and small clock factories

"The Influence of American Clock Factories or Production in the Black Forest" (October 1970, No. 148). The tables and figures that follow
cover over 200 Gerrnan trade marks all rrye have been able to assemble over

Neustadt in the

South including - as Furtwell known clock towns such wangern, Triberg, Lenzkirch, Sch.wen-

from Schramberg in the north to

the past couple of years. The list is obviously not complete. Many trade marks are still not ideatified. If you can help to complete the list or can fill in any of the holes, please send your information to E. D. Bush, 2416 Savannah Avenue, El Paso, Texas 79930. Additions (and any correc-

tions) will appear in the at a latcr date.
