[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 86989, member: 25"]This type of clock is one of very few decent quality mechanical clocks still made. They get very little attention because most clock collectors can buy 19th C examples for a lot less than a new modern example, secondhand modern examples are relatively cheap, though. You can find examples of 20th C carriage clocks under the trade names of Duverdray and Bloquel, L'Epee and Bayard, also Matthew Norman. THe back doors should be a snug fit but do not have catches. They should not swing open if the clock is held back down, but should pull open easily.[/QUOTE]
