Description: Antique Admiral Dewey commemorative clock Click images to enlarge Description Great commemorative clock by the Waterbury Clock Co. of Admiral Dewey and his defeat of the enemy ships in Manila during the Spanish American War of 1898. The patriotic front of the clock is made of cast brass with an iron frame holding the movement. The casting shows a lot of fine detail of weapons and the the American eagle. The cast front is marked with the name of the designer and is stamped on the back, P.L.B.& Co, indicating that this casting was done by the Pittsburgh Lamp Brass & Company. There is also stamped, Patent Applied For. The dial features raised brass numerals and the back of the movement carries the Waterbury name and logo The iron frame has a written notation that this very clock was featured in the book, American Horology that was publish in the early 1970s. I have owned this clock since 1975. The time only movement appears to be over wound but the springs are good and I have no history of when it was serviced. The clock measures 14" by 11 1/2". The last photo shows this clock with the smaller version which is also listed. This is a great example of a very scarce model. Pictures sell!
