Old Schatz Clock?
by Nico Pappas
(Billings Montana)
Being that I have little/no information on this clock my mother-in-law got at a yard sale for $20.00.
It has a 7 jewel movement several different chime patterns, three key wind up (chimes hour hand and minute hand) or so I have been told.
The case is solid mahogany, and the clock works well, I do not have a photo of it.
On the back of the clock behind the back door there are several inscriptions: one reads Aug. Schatz's & Sohne, while the others are just general about the clock such as 7 Jewel.
The interesting part of the case is on the bottom of it is inscribed 500 894 0047 I do not know the sybolism of this number but its there and it seems important.
Please can you help??????????
Any information on the year of this clock and or a value of the clock you can comment here.
Thank you so so so much.
