<p>[QUOTE="buyingtime777, post: 310771, member: 188"]I was ignorant of Finster clocks and should have studied before saying anything. Electric movement would be correct for Finster but I do not feel the style is right. Apparently he was a preacher doing folk art clocks and selling them roadside in the 60's I now know. He was incorporating pyrography(woodburning) in all of his cases and the skull especially on this one seems to be a different style not to mention the lack of pyrography. I have no idea who might have made this. The following link shows images of Finster clocks. <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=finster+clock&client=firefox-b-1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj64-Lj4vjXAhWERCYKHXFGDpsQ_AUICygC&biw=1680&bih=917" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?q=finster+clock&client=firefox-b-1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj64-Lj4vjXAhWERCYKHXFGDpsQ_AUICygC&biw=1680&bih=917" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/search?q=finster+clock&client=firefox-b-1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj64-Lj4vjXAhWERCYKHXFGDpsQ_AUICygC&biw=1680&bih=917</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
