Julis W. Hansen, a German immigrant and jeweler, founded this company in 1907, having a knack for electro-mechanical design, and a local school principal had asked his help in automating the ringing of the class bells. He used a Connecticut time only movement on top, driving the bell control via a driveshaft behind the pendulum. His clocks always have unique aluminum dials with some fancy turned designs. The heavy oak case is well made; was refinished long ago and could use a little polish. Does run OK. Height 51.5 inches
