  About the Cover

This month's cover features three clocks that are described in more detail within the first three articles of this issue. Barry Hunter's Drawbaugh article, according to the reviewer, "was the best researched article we have seen submitted to the Bulletin for many years." Readers will no doubt agree, as they follow the author's journey as he discovers information about Drawbaugh and his clocks—the last extant example appears on the front cover. The lovely Waltham clock featured on the cover is one of many shown in Mel Kaye's article on the innovative 8-day 38 size clocks made by the Waltham Watch Co. These bronze table clocks are products of American manufacturing ingenuity; their European counterparts were similar in style but used 30-hour movements. The classic Bahnhäusle cuckoo clock shown on the front is featured in Dr. Kahlert's article, which describes the historical beginnings of these clocks just in time to mark their 150th anniversary.
