Description
This clock is from the Casamaro motor yacht of the Carroll Peacock family of Lubec. The yacht’s name derives from the first two letters of the family first names: Carroll (1899-1975), Sadie, Marie, and Robert. The nickel-plated brass-cased clock was manufactured by Seth Thomas and marketed by the Kelvin - White Company, a vendor of ship compasses. The clock is wound by a key inserted above the numeral 6, accessible by unscrewing the bezel and lifting off the protective glass disc. It bears the serial number 246735.
