The Scarborough Historical Society Meeting on  Wednesday, December 6th, will feature Paul Fournier of Scarborough Hollow Clock Works. His business repairs nearly all types of clocks from the 1700s through modern quartz and electrics. His website claims that “cuckoo is spoken there!”

Paul is a graduate of the School Of Horology located in Western Lancaster County, PA. He is the Past President of the Maine Chapter of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors. He will talk about the history and general care of clocks and will evaluate any clocks attendees bring to the meeting. If you plan to bring a clock for evaluation, please email the historical society before the meeting.
