A HENRY DREYFUSS "WAFER" CLOCK

E. Ingraham Co., Bristol, Connecticut

Working electric motor, keeps time, mild abrasions to copper surround, dia: 7 in. Henry Dreyfuss (American, 1904-1972) was a noted industrial designer, most famous for the Bell Model 302 telephone and the luxury locomotive Twentieth Century Limited. Dreyfuss's use of a large red dot on the second hand turns an otherwise functional axis into an interesting design element.
