Automatic Memorandum Clock Co., London, "Davidson's Patent Automatic Memorandum Clock", 8 day time and reminder, spring driven, balance wheel movement in a walnut case with four full pillars and wooden urn on top. A time-only movement powers the clock and rotates a disk hidden within the urn. The disk has slots that correspond to different times of day. Memoranda, in the form of small bone tablets upon which one can write a few words, are placed within the slots. At the assigned time, a tablet falls through the slot, tips a brass tray, and triggers the battery powered alarm bell located in the base. The alarm would continue to sound until the tablet was removed. The case has an original, but worn finish. Case feet are missing. Good paper label under the lid of the urn. The white enamel dial and beveled glass are fine. The clock ticks, but was not tested long term. Power transmission to the slotted disk will need attention. The old electrical wiring and bell mechanism will need restoration. Three bone reminder tablets are included with the clock.
