Question
I have inherited a very old cuckoo clock . It came to this country some time after World War 1 . is there any way to determine its exact age?  Thank -You

Answer
not really- the makers name on the dial or elsewhere and all the info stamped on the back plate of the mechanism might help give you origins , maker and period of time.

a photo fo the mechanism might help too.  advise if you have more info

any mechanical clock question -no watches- no battery clock questions and no appraisals-ie: "how much is my clock worth?" type questions please! Attach a photo if possible and note all markings on the rear of the mechanism- thanks 40 years as a professional clock repair person- still a full time clock repair service owner
