I just received this clock in for "restoration". It now has an old style battery operated movement that has stopped working. I am going to guess that it might originally have had an electro magnetic movement in it. A paper inside the clock says: Style No. 34-47 S/N 411013 24 VDC Nov 25, 1930 My customer would like an original style movement placed in it, so I am hoping that someone can tell me what was original to this case.

Ken, Yes, I think you are absolutely correct. Not sure where I got the Seth idea, but I think there were some movements early on that weren't. (battery operated)

I did find out that ITR was the forerunner of IBM and watched a 30 min. video of an ITR Punch Clock restoration. Not at all like your clock but good fun to watch. This guy knows his stuff.
Hi Ken,I just Did a search on Google and there is quite a bit of info on line.I typed in "International Time Recording Co.Clocks"and came up all kinds of sites.There are a lot of collectors out there that would probably be glad to help you with info on the clock.Regards.Norm
