Forest Clock
german clock makers from 1900thru 1945?
black forest clock maker E.Lauffer
It is often quite easy to identify a clock’s maker, especially if it is a shelf clock or wall clock. The majority of the best known 19th century American usually placed their full company name on their products. You’ll often find their names printed or engraved on the dial faces. They may be clearly visible towards the center of the dial or almost unnoticeable printed around the edge of the dial, sometimes obscured (or almost so) by the bezel. Sometimes you’ll find paper labels affixed to the inside of the case or pasted on the back. You’ll also find their names engraved or stamped on the backplate of the movement.
It may be more difficult to identify a clock’s maker if it is of European, Asian or South American origin. These makers often used only a trademark symbol or initials if they marked their clocks.
There are some very comprehensive books which can be used to find out who the maker is by the trademark symbols used. The Clock and Watch Trademark Index – European Origin: Austria – England – France – Germany – Switzerland, by Karl Kochmann, has more than 960 pages to help you identify clockmakers by the trademarks they used. Unfortunately, this book is out of print and hard to find, although it remains the most comprehensive on the subject.
It is beyond the scope of this site to list the thousands of trademarks, symbols and trade names that have been used by clockmakers to brand their wares. However, we do provide images or descriptions of some of the ones you are most likely to encounter. We hope this will help you identify the maker if you find such a mark used instead of the full maker’s name.
