Fraudulent Old Clocks.

The brass lantern clocks of the six teenth and seventeenth centuries have made a strong appeal to collectors, and this fact has led to the manufac- ture of replicas of the old clocks, When these are sold frankly as rep licas there is nothing to be said against such a practice; but, unfor- tunately, the matter does not stop here and too often the attempt is made to palm off an imitation as genuine old clock. Famous makers names are added and various expedients adopted to make the new clock pass muster as an old one. Such frauds are deplora- ble from every point of view, and the ignorance of many collectors makes success possible. Every one. it is ob- viOus, cannot possess a genuine old clock It would be we'll if this fact were faced. and the clocks bought simply as reproductions, by all those who are not in a position to make reasonably sure that they are really purchasing genuine old English clock-Christian Science Monitor.
