EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph showcases a Thirty-Hour Striking and Alarum Brass Lantern Clock, created in Britain during the 1940s. The clock, featured in Kenneth Ullyett's seminal work "British Clocks and Clockmakers" published by Collins in 1947, is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and technological innovation of the time. The clock, with its rich, golden brass exterior, stands as a symbol of the country's industrial prowess and commitment to precision timekeeping. The clock face, with its Roman numerals and finely-crafted hands, is a study in simplicity and elegance. The clock's most distinctive feature, however, is its ability to strike the hours and minutes on a bell, making it an essential tool for keeping time in the pre-digital age. The lantern-style design of the clock, with its protective glass casing, also served a practical purpose, allowing the clock to be used in various locations, including bedrooms and studies, without the need for constant supervision. The clock's antique charm and historical significance make it a prized possession for collectors and enthusiasts of social history and technology. This photograph, taken in the 1940s, provides a glimpse into a bygone era, where timekeeping was an art form, and clocks like this Thirty-Hour Striking and Alarum Brass Lantern Clock were cherished objects that helped shape the daily lives of people in Britain and beyond.
