ISBN: 9781851491957.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe majority of books about clocks tend to focus upon the earlier types, or at least the high quality clocks, made before the middle of the nineteenth century. This is a book, however, for those who enjoy later clocks and are keen to learn more about the hundreds of examples which are often available at an attainable price, especially for the collector who knows what to look for and what to avoid. This book covers areas of study, hitherto largely ignored, such as Victorian inventiveness, decorative clocks of the 1920s and technical clocks of the early twentieth century. In short, Collectable Clocks is much more than a mere collection of photographs accompanied by auctioneers descriptions and prices. The authors are keen, experienced horologists and well aware of the questions that need answers - What is quality? What should one look for? What date is this clock? Virtually every known type of clock is illustrated and discussed from alarm, bracket and carriage to skeleton, tension and wall.
