Dorian D. Clair Antique Clock Repair 1301 Sanchez, San Francisco, CA (415) 648-8680 In noe valley Tags: repair, store, antique clocks Comments: Jharrison says: Makes me wonder (3 responses) I sometimes wonder what kind of people run these little shops devoted to repairing old vacuums, or black & white TVs or, in this case, antique clocks. On the plus side, they must meet the most interesting people– fetishists and obsessive compulsive types who live in suspended animation until their precious grandfather clock is repaired to its virgin state. On the other hand, how do they pay their rent? It seems like a tough way to make a buck.

The Grandfather clock song. http://vialin.com Press
The lyrics go as followed… My grandfather’s clock was to large for the shelf, So it stood ninety years on the floor; It was taller by half than the old man himself, Though it weighed not a pennyweight more. It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born, And was always his treasure and pride. But it stopp’d short, Never to go again, When the old man died.. Oct 11 2004 14:00 GMT
