Hi Ron. My name is SS

I’m writing from Quebec, Canada 

My mother in law gave me this clock before she passed. A while ago. 

I’ve been doing some research to see who would appreciate this clock and what is the value. 

I’ve been looking on sites but I don’t see this original shape. I was wondering if it would be possible to give me an idea of the value and who to sell it too. 

Thanks SS

Thanks for your email, SS. I am just back from vacation and catching up on email queries, so, I apologize for the delay.

What you have is a clock made by the Pequegnat Clock Company of Kitchener Ontario. It is a clock that is part of their Maple Leaf series of kitchen clocks. Here is an article I wrote earlier this year describing clocks in the Maple Leaf series.

Your clock has value and most Pequegnat clocks are sought after by collectors. It would be valued in the $200-$300 range.

Here is another article I wrote that might give you some ideas on how to sell your clock.

Hope this helps.
