Looking at American Watch Factory Ephemera Items
By In this video, I sort through a small set of ephemera items I recently purchased at an auction by Jones & Horan. Items include a paperweight promoting the Crescent Watch Case Company, a cyclometer manufactured by the New York Standard Watch Co., a wooden bowl with an illustration of the Waltham watch factory, a large medallion celebrating the centennial of the Seth Thomas Clock Co., enameled items produced by the O’Hara Dial Company in Waltham, a watch case opener by the Keystone Watch Case Co. commemorating the 1893 Chicago Expo, shipping containers used to ship movements from the Waltham factory, and more.
*Special thanks to the gentleman that compiled this collection over many years.
