<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 403651, member: 37"]Not sure how I can help. Story seems entirely plausible and the desk certainly dates to the time period suggested, though the styling might be even a bit earlier. Think it possible that the clock works could have come from the Ithaca Calendar clock Co. that was in operation in Ithaca at that time. However, if you have information that the clock was present at the time it was moved back to MI, I doubt an Ithaca connection would help much. The only possible help would be to find a picture of the clock and maybe the folks in Ithaca could help there...….</p><p><br /></p><p>The Ithaca Clock Co seems to be the place for all matters related to this historic company.
