Tom SeymourJack, Thanks for posting the Big Ben. That is, I think, Style 3 in the Big Ben series. Everyone likes the top of the line items, few can afford them. These clocks represent a more realistic picture of timepieces in the average household. While they are not top quality and not desired by high end collectors, these have their own niche for collectors. Many intersting facts about the history and lifestyle of the majority of people can be learned and enjoyed by collecting these "little guys".
