"The 'Atomic' Clock" by Claude Berner- Original magazine article (magazine clipping) which was removed from a 1950 Swiss magazine.
Text in the article is in English.
The opening sentences of the article read:
"Introduction: Various publications which appeared during 1949 mentioned a new time keeper made in America by the National Bureau of Standards; it was called the 'atomic clock.' To avoid all confusion it should be stated forthwith that this clock does not use atomic energy in any way as its motive power; it is not anything akin to an atomic bomb mounted in the case of a Neuchatel clock!"
The magazine article was carefully removed from a Swiss magazine.
[Please note: this is a magazine article/magazine clipping only; no watch,clock, parts or tools are included.]
The article is approximately 4 3/4 pages in length (on 3 sheets of paper) and includes a couple of black and white diagrams/figures within the text.
As with most vintage magazine clippings, there is some yellowing to the paper due to age as well as light wear and small bends.
The magazine article was carefully removed directly from a Swiss magazine. It is not a copy or reproduction. The rest of the magazine is not included.
[Please note: this is a magazine article/magazine clipping only; no watch, clock, parts or tools are included.]
