Summary: Electrifying Book
Review: This book was recommended to me by a friend who said he thought I might find it interesting. My mother used to work for Telechron and G.E. making clocks. Now, after reading this book I have a better idea what she did all day while I was at school! If you know anyone who worked for Telechron, this book would be a great gift. I even got the courage to look at a couple of broken clocks I had lying around with the help of the repair section. I think I'm going to get one of these working again!

Summary: Telechron Clocks- Style and Function in the 20th Century
Review: What an incredible book! Mr. Linz presents the History of the Warren-Telechron Company in an interesting, yet not burdensome fashion. Using photographs of the literally hundreds of models made until the company's demise, the author takes you from the heavy Cathedral-Style through the Deco era and into "space-age" design of the 50's and early 60's. I'll wage a bet that if you don't have a Telechron, someone in your family probably does. This book will make a fan out of anyone who is remotely interested in design. There's literally a Telechron for anyone's decor!
