We present this data to help us organize information about Warren Clock Co. and early Warren Telechron Co. clocks. Early clocks have a serial number on the motor nameplate, and we guess that the company stopped using serial numbers around 1930.
Note: My files did not include a patent from Oct. 3, 1923, a date used on nameplates in the early 1920s. I believe this patent date was used in error, and the Oct. 3, 1922 date was the correct date that should have been used.
