Curious Clock from Detroit Astonishes Readers
The Scientific American recounts Felix Meier's eighteen by eight by five foot clock weighing 4000 pounds. A marble dome features Washington, Columbus, and a skeletal Father Time, with figures and bells at each corner. The piece includes a dramatic quarterly and hourly chimes, moving figures, and a ten year, 87000 cash effort, amid stranger tales of the Bush family house.
