Clock collector seeks space for his growing collection
In Carthage, Missouri, J C Allen Jr. keeps about 250 clocks at home and says a running clock is an heirloom. He began after receiving an English watch, joined the NAWCC, and now spends spare time repairing and trading clocks. He hopes for a new room but has filled every space and even clocks neighbors’ homes.
