The clock motor is from the 50's and was pulled from possibly a damaged original Sessions Clock body. It was missing electrical cord and has been replaced. Very quiet and keeps good time.
The Sessions Clock was placed in a Holland Mold ceramic frame and is very appealing.
Sessions Clock Company
Company was started about 1900. In 1956, Sessions was absorbed by a company interested mainly in their timing devices.
Holland Mold
Founded in 1946 by Frank Hollendonner, an Austrian immigrant who learned mold making at a tile company in his homeland. He started his company in his four car garage with his brother Rudy as his partner.
Never producing finished products, they made molds primarily for home crafters, although some of their designs found their way into mass production at various potteries. Holland Mold flourished for fifty-one years, and was ultimately owned by three generations of the Hollendonner family.
But times change and the 1980's saw the popularity of rubber master molds, and competition in the field increased. The family decided to retire and sold the company's assets in 1997.
