AT AUCTION, continued.
Watch collectors were also included in this sale, and
they, too, had quite a nice selection to choese from. Some
items were very reasonable, such as enameled watches
selling for as low as $25, and fusee pocket watches (one
with two ships on a porcelain dial) for $20f. Anl8Kt. gold
Tiffany open face minute repeater in need of repairs fet
ched $950, and a French quarter hour repeater, silver
hunter case, calendar and cronograph, brought in $450.
A Howard mason watch (NOT a Dudley) was sold for $130.
In addition to the above esoteric items, there were a
number of more common ones, and quite a few novelties,
such as Lux SBfinated alarm clocks ($20 to $40) t Ansonia
P.W. ($12.50), Gilbert long drop round top school clock,
time only ($155). A very much wanted novelty was a Seth
Thomas, Plymouth Hollow, Burgular and Fire Detective
Alarm Clock, which brought in $650. A Windmill Clock
was sold for $600. Blinking eye clocks went for as low as
$150 to a high of $500. Battery operated clocks went for
prices ranging from $65 (a Barr clock) to $80 (for a Tif
fany Neverwind).
Naturally, in this short article I could not list every
type of timepiece sold, but I believe the aboye is a good
representation of the most interesting pieces offered. I
think that it will be a long timebefore we see a similar
amount and variety of timepieces offered in a sale at one
time.
