Baird Advertising Clocks
Filed Under Antique Clocks | 1 Comment
Baird Advertising clocks appeal to afficionados of clocks and advertising. They were manufactured in the late 19th century and advertise consumer products of the time — a great piece of popular American history. Best known are the clocks advertising the Coca-Cola brand.
These clocks are collector items and change hands for a high price. It is now possible to check that your clock has the correct parts — the hands and the pendulum in particular. Jerry Maltz has devoted 25 years to the collecting and research of clocks manufactured by Edward Payson Baird and published his research in a 200 page book devoted to these clocks, complete with photographs.

Rhythm clocks get their name from their manufacturer - RHYTHM Clock Company of Japan. It started in a small factory outside Tokyo in 1950 and has now sold over 20 million clocks and movements all over the world.
In 1976 the company developed the first Quartz Alarm clock movement in the world.
The company manufactures all sorts of timing and control equipment but is best known for the magic motion and sound clocks, which feature charming animated displays and melodies on the hour. Many have a Swarovski crystal pendulum and a face that opens into 2 or 3 sections to reveal the animated display.More
