Format Hardcover

Pages 268 - Click on images to enlarge and view.

Craftsmen have been tracking time for over 300 years in the Black Forest area of Germany. Cuckoo and singing bird clocks, early glass bell, trumpeter, Jockele, animation, and picture frame clocks all have been made in the Black Forest area by local clockmakers.


Rick Ortenburger's important study traces the development of the Black Forest clock industry between about 1700 and 1930. He provides useful information that will meet the collectors' need and increase the appreciation of the beautiful craft these clocks represent. Photographs in color and black and white of 600 different examples make the industry's evolution from early cottage farm houses to the later development of factories come to life.
