History of the Sleepmeter Alarm Clock

The trademark SLEEPMETER was issued to The Western Clock Mfg. Co. on December 27, 1910. The registration contains the statement "The trade-mark has been continuously used in our business since August 1st, 1910."

A cast zinc cased Sleepmeter was made in Canada. It looks like a large Dura Case (La Salle) clock.
