LITCHFIELD: On Wednesday, September 26th, at 7:00 PM. Jim Katzin will give a presentation on the history of clockmaking in Litchfield. The talk will be at the East Litchfield Chapel, 62 East Litchfield Road South, Litchfield, and be accompanied by several examples of locally made clocks and movements from the early to mid 19th century.

Mr. Katzin, an East Litchfield native, has been repairing and collecting American clocks for over 25 years. A life member of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors, he was president of the CT chapter of the organization for 12 years.
