Telling Time at Andover Memorial Hall Library with Bob Frishman

Saturday, January 11, 2025 - 11:00am

Join Andover resident Bob Frishman for a lecture about two of the library's clocks and the E. Howard Clock Company.

For 150 years, our library’s patrons have seen the time on the big round E. Howard gallery clock mounted above the circulation desk. Another old Howard clock, a white marble wall clock, may also have been in the library from the beginning. It hung for many years in the children’s room and now

hangs even more prominently in the first-floor reference area.

Andover clock expert Bob Frishman recently donated his services to restore the weekly-wind weight-powered movements of both of these antique clocks. Join Bob for an illustrated presentation about the

clocks and his work on them, including details about Boston’s E. Howard Clock Company, one of America’s most prestigious and long-lasting makers of public clocks. Other notable large Howard movements can be found in the nearby towers of Lawrence’s Ayer Mill and the Unitarian Church in North Andover’s old center.
