Desbois, LONDON, 446 and Finer & Nowland, LONDON, No. 4608 respectively; eleven three-quarter plate movements including an example signed Cha's Frodsham, 84 Strand, LONDON, 01874 and another Henry Frodsham, LIVERPOOL, N. 2715; and eight various unsigned movements, together with thirteen Swiss 'bar' movements, seven signed movement dust covers, thirty-three unsigned dust covers and six assorted enamel dials, (qty). Charles Frodsham was born in 1810 into a family of clockmakers with his grandfather, William originating from Cheshire before moving to London prior to 1781 where he was admitted to the Clockmakers Company. His son, William James, had six sons, four of whom joined the firm of Parkinson and Frodsham in London; whilst Charles, the third born son set-up on his own at Barnes Place, Islington in 1834. He moved to 12 Finsbury Pavement in 1836 then to number 7 in 1838. On the death of the renowned chronometer maker John Roger Arnold in 1843 Charles Frodsham acquired the business and began trading as Arnold, Charles Frodsham from 84 Strand, London. Unusually Frodsham was not admitted to the Clockmakers Company until 1845 but went on to serve as master twice in 1855 and 1862. Charles Frodsham died of liver disease in January 1871 and was succeeded by his son, Harrison Mill Frodsham. The business became Charles Frodsham and Company and in 1884 and then was incorporated as a limited Company in 1893 before relocating to 115 New Bond Street, London two years later where they remained well into the Twentieth Century. George Edward Frodsham was born in 1831 and became involved in the 31 Gracechurch Street arm of the Frodsham family businesses in 1864, subsequently taking it on in 1881 and continued there until 1901. Henry Frodsham was known to have worked between 1835-56. He operated from Castle Street, Liverpool, between 1835-41.Daniel Desbois was apprenticed to John Johnson at Grays Inn Passage and took over his business from circa 1790 to 1846, dying two years later in 1848. The partnership of Finer (Thomas) and Nowland is recorded on the British Museum website as working from 5 Hatton Garden, London 1800-05 and then 48 High Street, Holborn, London 1808-39.Condition Report: All movements are non-working and in dirty condition.

A VICTORIAN MAHOGANY SMALL FIVE-GLASS MANTEL CLOCKSharp, Dublin, late 19th centuryThe four double-screwed pillar twin chain fusee gong striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by lenticular bob pendulum with holdfast to the backplate, the 4 by 5 inch gilt brass dial with fine rosette engraved centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring inscribed SHARP DUBLIN to lower margin, set into a fine delicate foliate scroll pierced and engraved rectangular mask and with blued steel spade hands, the case with large thick chamfered top glass set into stepped cavetto upstand over ogee cornice, the front with silvered brass canted fillet insert to the hinged glazed dial aperture flanked by fluted canted angles, the sides with rectangular bevel glazed apertures and the rear with rectangular glazed door, on moulded skirt base with brass ogee bracket feet.29cm (11ins) high, 24.5cm (9.25ins) wide, 18.5cm (7.25ins) wide. A Christopher Sharp(e) is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in Dublin circa 1824. He is further recorded in Stuart, William Galland Watch and Clockmaker's in Ireland as working at 57 Exchequer St. in 1820 and then at 60 Exchequer St. from 1824 to 1841. He was a Marine & Pocket Chronometer Manufacturer and was elected Member of the Royal Irish Academy in Oct. 1831. From 1842 to 1845 he worked within partnership 'Sharp and Dobbyn'.Details such as double-screwed pillars and gong strike would suggest a date of towards the end of the 19th century for the present clock, hence would have most likely been made by a successor of Christopher Sharp.Please note: the height of this clock is 29cm high, not 18cm as printed in the catalogue. This has been updated on our online platformsCondition Report: The movement is in relatively clean working condition and appears complete and fundamentally all original with no visible evidence of alteration or significant replacements. The dial in in fine clean condition. The case has been cosmetically restored/repolished and has some historic bumps, scuffs and shrinkage commensurate with age and use and few more recent small scuffs to the finishe hence may benefit from some additional work to improve its appearance.Clock is complete with pendulum, case key and winder. Condition Report Disclaimer

Harold Gatty (born 1937 in Campbell Town, Tasmania died 1957 in Fiji) was an Australian navigator, inventor, and aviation pioneer. Charles Lindbergh called Gatty the "Prince of Navigators. " In 1931, Gatty served as navigator, along with pilot Wiley Post, on the flight which set the record for aerial circumnavigation of the world, flying a distance of 15, 747 miles (24, 903 km) in a Lockheed Vega named the Winnie Mae, in 8 days, 15 hours, and 51 minutes. Gatty began his career as a navigator in 1917, at age 14, when he was appointed a cadet midshipman at the Royal Australian Naval College. After World War I, he became an apprentice on a steamship in the Australian merchant navy, where he learned the patterns of the stars while standing watch at night. Gatty served on many ships, some sailing between Australia and California, and ran a supply shop in Sydney Harbour until 1927, when he emigrated to the United States. In California, Gatty opened a navigation school, teaching marine navigation to yachtsmen. In 1928, his attention turned to aerial navigation, particularly to trans oceanic flights, where his experience as a ship's navigator applied. Gatty is credited with inventing an air sextant which used a spirit level to provide an artificial horizon. He also invented the "aero chronometer" which offset inaccuracies introduced into observations taken in a moving plane. The most important invention of his career was the Gatty drift sight. This optical device was directed at the ground, or the tops of clouds, and used to determine the rate and direction of an airplane's drift, or movement away from its heading. The device was also used as a ground speed indicator. In 1929, Gatty navigated a Lockheed Vega on a flight from Los Angeles to New York City for Nevada Airlines, in an effort to demonstrate the feasibility of coast to coast passenger service. The flight made four stops and took 19 hours and 53 minutes, which set the transcontinental airspeed record for a commercial airliner. In 1930, Gatty prepared a coast to coast route and navigation charts for Anne Morrow Lindbergh, whom he had also taught as a student. Anne Lindbergh served as navigator with her husband Charles on a record setting cross country flight of 14 hours and 45 minutes. The next year, Wiley Post asked Gatty to accompany him on an effort to break the world record for circumnavigating the earth, which was previously set at 21 days by the Graf Zeppelin airship. Gatty accepted, hoping to demonstrate the effectiveness of his navigation methods. The journey began on 23 June 1931 at Roosevelt Field in New York and followed a 15, 000 mile course across Europe, Russia, and Siberia, due to the lack of suitable airfields nearer the equator. Post and Gatty crossed the Atlantic in a record time of 16 hours and 17 minutes and continued to Berlin, Moscow, and Khabarovsk, then crossed the Bering Sea, landing on the beach near Solomon, Alaska, then to Edmonton, Alberta, arriving finally back at Roosevelt Field after 8 days, 15 hours, and 51 minutes. The pair received a tickertape parade in New York City. A year after the circumnavigation with Wiley Post, the US Congress passed a bill allowing civilians to receive the Distinguished Flying Cross. President Hoover pinned the medals on Gatty and Post. Gatty was offered American citizenship and the newly created position of Senior Aerial Navigation Engineer for the U. S. Army Air Corps. Gatty expressed his wish to remain an Australian citizen and Congress passed a bill allowing foreign citizens to hold that post. In 1934, Gatty formed the South Seas Commercial Company with Donald Douglas, with the plan to deliver air service to the islands of the South Pacific. However, the company was soon sold to Pan Am who brought Gatty into the company to organise flight routes in that region. During the Second World War, Gatty was given the honorary rank of group captain in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and worked for the U. S. Army Air Forces (USAAF) in the South Pacific. He was later appointed director of Air Transport for the Allied forces, based in Australia, under General Douglas MacArthur. He resigned his position in 1943, as a result of difficulties with MacArthur and his organisation being disbanded. He then moved to Washington, D. C., where he authored The Raft Book, a survival guide for airmen downed at sea. The book became a success and was placed in the survival kits of all Allied airmen serving in the Pacific. After World War II, Gatty relocated to Fiji with his Dutch born second wife. Here he formed Fiji Airways which later became Air Pacific. He wrote a book on navigation, Nature Is Your Guide, which was published soon after his death from a stroke in 1957. He was buried in Fiji. Condition: Excellent Condition.
