Here’s a pic (slide 39) of the London Clock Guilds presentation I did upon our return . . . showing John Harrisson’s long case. The UK Antiquarian Horological Journal Vol 31 Number 4 June 2009 has reproduced another one of three longcase, this one made by John for his brother James – owned by the Leeds City Museums and it is about to come on public view. Barbara and I are in awe of these handmade oak clock movements and with thanks to the HJ, I’ve scanned the 19 pages pertaining to the clock for all to read. The large 94 Mb version download here. The smaller download is here.
