BLUEBIRD CLOCK

[Curt Sprenger]

Keith,

I believe our clock is mahogany. I just removed it to make patterns and
the wood is kinda reddish. Maybe it's not the original thing. According
to Bluebird, the clock wood is walnut and 2" thick. Our clock is 1-5/8"
thick.

Replaced the battery and the clock is running.

I'll get the patterns in the mail. Will send some pictures to you as well.
