Art Deco Clock by Vitascope Industries

1920 - 1940
Description

A 1940’s Art Deco automaton clock by Vitascope Industries.

This fantastic clock was made in Ramsey on the Isle of Man in circa 1940 and there is an example of one in the Manx Museum.

The clock has an automated rocking ship on an illuminated ocean scene with cloud background. The ship rocks with the lit background changing from sunrise to sunset by with a particular vibrant blue to purple. It is encased in the original Bakelite case with chrome Art Deco dial and hands.

The ship is thought to be a replica of the famous Star of India, which was built in Ramsey in 1863.
