Horologists Builds Own Street Clocks

O. W.Dreyer, Long Beach director of the Horological Association of California, has created something original in the way of street clocks. The large cuckoo clock over the entrance is an actual working model with the cuckoo appearing every half hour. It was made entirely by Mr. Dreyer in his own shop.

He also designed and constructed the working mechanism of the elaborate neon sign projecting over the sidewalk. The second hand of the large watch is arranged to rotate once a minute just as in a regular watch.
