Speaker: Andy Dervan will be speaking on the topic of Waltham Willard Banjo Clocks.

Andy began collecting clocks shortly after joining the NAWCC in 1997 and found clock collecting fascinating. He has found researching the histories of various makers and companies as challenging and exciting as collecting. He has published articles in NAWCC Bulletin and Clocks Magazine on Waltham Willard banjo clocks, Waltham Clock Co., and U.S. Watch Co. His principal collecting interest is weight driven clocks from late 19th and early 20th Centuries. He supports his clock addiction by working as a chemist for DuPont Performance Coatings.

Show and Tell: Bring along interesting items for show and tell.

Directions:
The Verona Restaurant is located at 18 Mount Auburn Street in Watertown Square at the intersection of RT. 20 (Main St) and RT. 16 (Mount Auburn St) about 1/2 mile from the Massachusetts Turnpike exit 17. There is rear entrance on Spring street across from a municipal parking lot where parking is easiest. Spring Street is a one way street which comes off of Main St. and runs parallel to Mount Auburn St.  I have provided directions below. If you have any questions, need any advise or directions please feel free to call me at 617-244-3779.
