Antiques: Mystery clocks
-->Mystery clocks have been popular since the 18th century. The clock seems to have no mechanism, yet keeps time.
One of the most famous is the "swinging-arm clock." A tall classical figure, usually bronze, holds some long rods with a pendulum bob on the bottom and a ball with a clock face on the top. The pendulum swings back and forth and the clock keeps time. These clocks were made for display in jewelry-store windows because their motion attracted customers.
One famous example was made by the Ansonia Clock Co. of Ansonia, Conn. It is known as "Gloria." The winged figure of a woman in a revealing draped dress holds the large clock ball in her right hand. How the clock works is not really a mystery. The clock mechanism is inside the ball. When wound, the pendulum moves back and forth for about eight days.
Ansonia made these clocks in the early 1900s using different figures, including "Huntress," "Juno" and "Fisher." The Gloria clock sold for $5,175 at a recent James D. Julia auction.
'CRICKET CHAIR'
Q: I was hoping you might be able to give me some information about my maple chair. It has a padded back and seat. I was told it is a "cricket chair," but I don't know what that is.
A: A cricket chair is a small armchair or rocker with a back cushion and padded seat. The padded seat usually has a drop skirt. The chair has turned legs and posts. Nobody knows why it's called a cricket chair.
MAJOLICA TOBACCO JAR
Q: My husband was left a majolica tobacco jar that must be about 100 years old. It originally belonged to his grandfather. It's in the shape of a man's head topped by a green hat brim. The man has longish hair and a large mustache, and he's wearing a blue collar and red cravat. Unfortunately, the hat that would be the tobacco jar's top is missing. Would it still be worth something to a collector?

About this book Pitchers, the pitches they throw, and how they throw them -- these days it's the stuff of constant scrutiny, but there's never been anything like a comprehensive source for such information. That's what preeminent baseball analyst Bill James and ESPN.com baseball columnist Rob Neyer realized over lunch more than a dozen years ago. Since then, they've been compiling the centerpiece of this book, the "Pitcher Census," which lists specific information for nearly two thousand pitchers, ranging throughout the history of professional baseball. The Guide also offers: A "dictionary" describing virtually every known pitch The origins and development of baseball's most important pitches Top ten lists: best fastballs, best spitballs, and everything in between Biographies of some of the great pitchers who have been overlooked More knuckleballers and submariners than you ever thought existed An open debate concerning pitcher abuse and durability A formula for predicting the Cy Young Award winner Something... |

About this book Introduction by Kevin Baker "The Natural," Bernard Malamud's first novel, published in 1952, is also the first--and some would say still the best--novel ever written about baseball. In it Malamud, usually appreciated for his unerring portrayals of postwar Jewish life, took on very different material--the story of a superbly gifted "natural" at play in the fields of the old daylight baseball era--and invested it with the hardscrabble poetry, at once grand and altogether believable, that runs through all his best work. Four decades later, Alfred Kazin's comment still holds true: "Malamud has done something which--now that he has done it!--looks as if we have been waiting for it all our lives. He has really raised the whole passion and craziness and fanaticism of baseball as a popular spectacle to its ordained place in mythology." |
