Happy Anniversary Clock's
The most comprehensive Anniversary Clock / 400-Day Repair Book. 2022 edition, 227 [printed] pages. Hundreds of photos and diagrams.* Do you own a clock that is special to you that has stopped working, perhaps a gift or a family heirloom? This book is for you.* Do you like to tinker with mechanical things? This book is for you.* Have you taken a clock apart but can't get it back together? This book is for you.* Are you fascinated with clocks, have several you have bought but do not work? This book is for you.Many times, the problem is simple to correct. Be bold. Take on your project. This book will hold your hand every step of the way and guide you to success. YOU CAN DO IT.Why does an Anniversary Clock stop Working? Most likely, it is because the suspension spring is broken. I will teach you how to replace it.Often, the works are dirty, need oiling, or most likely both. When the clock stops, think of it as "the oil light is on." It's a "cry for help." Without oil, the metal parts grind on each other, causing severe wear and damage. Oil also attracts dust, making the oil "gummy" and adding drag to its operation until it can no longer overcome the friction. If a clock is oiled regularly [every three to five years], chances are you will only ever need to re-oil your clock. If the clock is allowed to run until it stops, the only sure way to service it is to remove the works from its case, dismantle the parts, clean, service, and put the movement back together with fresh oil and correct adjustment.

Texas on Stamps
From explorer Cabeza de Vaca, who was shipwrecked on Galveston Island in 1528, to singer Willie Nelson and baseball superstar Nolan Ryan, Texas history, the people who made it, and the places it was made come alive on postage stamps. In over a hundred entries, Texas on Stamps displays stamps from the United States and foreign countries; the stamps are accompanied by explanatory text. First issued in May 1840, postage stamps soon became collectibles. Until about 1900, most portrayed reigning monarchs or, in this country, former presidents. Then pictorials were introduced featuring events, places, animals, any subject of national significance. Rather than collecting stamps by countries, some philatelists began topical or thematic collections. Published in the year of the Texas Philatelic Association's centennial, Texas on Stamps offers an unusual way to look at Texas history and a guide for topical collectors.
Mountain Walk Versus Forrest Fenn
Mountain Walk Versus Forrest Fenn was written to support a unique idea and to defend the legacy of a generous and noble friend. Forest Fenn devised a treasure hunt in which he hid a fortune in gold and jewelry in the Rocky Mountains. He peppered clues throughout his book, The Thrill of the Chase: A Memoir, as to its location and declared the finder could keep the treasure. The purpose was to get people outside, and to share the things and experiences that made his own life interesting and fulfilling.The treasure was discovered in June 2020, shortly before Forest Fenn and his wife of sixty years passed. A decision by Fenn and the finder to not disclose the site left many of the thousands who searched for his treasure dissatisfied-some caustically so. For them, the game was a hoax, a scam, and unfair. Legal suits were brought against the Fenn estate, the finder, and other tangentially involved individuals. Books and articles were written with no purpose other than destroying Fenn's legacy."Mountain Walk," a blog to help interpret the clues and keep treasure hunters out of trouble argued the only way to stop the nonsense was to find the hiding site using nothing but the clues given in Fenn's memoir, The Thrill of the Chase. The author takes the reader through that mental exercise with the caveat that at this point, only the finder really knows the site's location.
Modern Canadian Doubled Die Varieties - First Edition
The First Edition of Modern Canadian Doubled Die Varieties is a comprehensive catalogue written by John O'Connor, a numismatist from Kawartha Lakes Ontario. In late 2018 after conversing with like-minded experts and collectors regarding the lack of publications, research, or documentation for this type of die variety, John decided to take on the task of documenting, finding, and occasionally making new discoveries of doubled dies on Canadian coins intended for circulation and proof-like sets. Inside the first edition, readers will find detailed images of how these types of die varieties can occur during a process known as hubbing while also showing the differences between common forms of worthless doubling and genuine doubled die varieties. There are 57 detailed listings with price charts, mintage reports, compositions, weights, and over 100 colored images to use for comparison purposes while searching for these oftentimes scarce varieties. Additionally, there is an extensive reference list containing 173 doubled die listings across all seven denominations of Canadian coins with some information cited from well-known collectors, experts, and websites that have given the author proper written permission to reference individual listings, listing numbers, websites, images, coin community forum posts, and written information so that collectors new and experienced can have access to presumably the largest Canadian doubled die reference list to date.Includes 57 Detailed Listings for: 1 Cent - from 1941 to 20085 Cents - from 1965 to 202010 Cents - from 1951 to 20121 Dollar - from 2012 to 20222 Dollars - for 2012Includes 173 Detailed Reference Listings for: 1 Cent - from 1941 to 20085 Cents - from 1947 to 202010 Cents - from 1951 to 201225 Cents - from 1953 to 197250 Cents - from 1943 to 19961 Dollar - from 1945 to 20222 Dollars - from 2011 to 2021

Cartier and Islamic Art
Louis Cartier (1875-1942), the grandson of Cartier founder Louis-Fran癟ois, was an impassioned collector and patron of the arts. He was particularly entranced by Islamic arts, especially Persian book arts: their geometric shapes, color combinations, and motifs are apparent in Cartier jewelry to this day. Louis's younger brother Jacques--an expert in precious stones--traveled to India and the Persian Gulf in 1911 and 1912 to experience the culture and bring home treasures of the Middle East: natural pearls. This was the pivotal moment when the dialogue between these two worlds opened up, eventually blossoming into a beautiful relationship that has lasted for decades.Published to accompany a major exhibition at the Mus矇e des Arts Decoratifs in Paris and the Dallas Museum of Art, Cartier and Islamic Arts delves into the Cartier archives to trace the story of Louis Cartier's love of Islamic art and the ways in which he incorporated the Islamic world's stylized motifs into Cartier's jewelry. Dazzling photographs are accompanied by in-depth texts from a raft of distinguished scholars of both Islam and the decorative arts.
