Question
Can you tell me where I might find a replacement glass for the door covering the dial of  my New Haven Schoolhouse Clock? The glass is beveled and is 9 and 3/8" in diameter.

Answer
Hi Frank,

Flat and convex clock glass is available from most clock supply houses, but beveled glass usually is not. However, beveled clock glass is available from numerous specialty glass companies. Here is a link which lists several suppliers: ftp://atmos-man.com/main/glass.mcc

You can also web search for "beveled clock glass" and find a number of suppliers.  http://www.clockmasteronline.com
