| 释义 |
The Hertzberg Clock is an historic landmark and visitor attraction[1] located at the corner of N. St. Mary's and Houston streets in the Bexar County city of San Antonio in the U.S. state of Texas.[2] Installed in 1878 in front of Eli Hertzberg Jewelry Company, it was made by E. Howard & Co. of Boston, Massachusetts. The freestanding town clock was donated to the San Antonio Conservation Society in 1982 by the daughters of its original owners, Max and Nell Goodman.[3] A 1985 restoration was made possible through donations of time and money from Republicbank San Antonio, John J. Duff, master watchmaker and clockmaker, London Watch and Clock Company; and Kurt, Ted, and Al Voss, Kurt Voss Metals, Inc. The clock is hand wound and maintains time through a series of weights.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Historic Houston Street Walking Tour|url=http://www.sanantonio.gov/dtops/pdf/Historic%20Houston%20Street%20Walking%20Tour.pdf|publisher=City of San Antonio|accessdate=September 7, 2012}} {{Coord|29.42654|N|98.49142|W|type:landmark_region:US-TX|format=dms|display=title}}{{San Antonio Conservation Society}}{{Texas-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|title=Just Like Clockwork|url=http://sanantoniodailyphoto.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html|publisher=San Antono Daily Photo|accessdate=September 9, 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web|last=Robedeau|first=Barbara|title=Petronila Pereida Goodman|url=http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/fgo51|work=Handbook of Texas online|publisher=Texas State Historical Association|accessdate=September 6, 2012}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=The Hertzberg Clock – San Antonio, TX|url=http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WMDFAR|publisher=Waymarking|accessdate=September 6, 2012}} 4 : Culture of San Antonio|Clocks in the United States|Tourist attractions in San Antonio|1878 works |
