Purpose
This alarm clock club is dedicated to the memory of Howard Banta. Officially, we are Chapter 178 of NAWCC (National Association Watch and Clock Collectors). Noisy, quiet, large, small, swinging , stable, or whatever, alarm clocks are our major interest. We hope you enjoy browsing these pages and will somehow find time to help us or others to broaden the coverage of this fascinating area.
