I did find something not much though. Somebody else enquired about the same thing as you. Some one replied saying that these clocks were registered in 1925 by a Karl Kohler. So your clock is possibly 86 yrs old.
Maybe something else will come up soon for Karl Kohler ?
Hope this helps.
It is a veryyyy beautiful grandfather clock, I too have one , not a Kohler and it is 80 yrs old. Love yours.
Thanks for the reply. I looked up Karl Kohler and still get nothing. I am astonished that there is such little info on the internet about this clock....
Can you believe I picked it up for 300 on craigslist....
U are sooooo lucky you got it that cheap. Mine which is an 80 yr old German clock cost me $2.500 !
Is your name David ?? Because the comment I found was attached in another site to the very same looking clock with the very same background. There is a comment there , somebody stated that these clocks were registered in 1925. Do you have that site ?
Maybe if u go here, they might be able to help u get more info
