    Barnum Trunk Co. Minneapolis CROSS Clock
    No information or history known
    Size = Palm

    Winds, but does not run.
    Extra Button does nothing. What is that button for?
    What is the special purpose or sub-category of this clock?

    I am guessing it was sold with antique steamer trunk and it was used for travel.

    Barnum is a trunk company, not a clock maker.
    "Cross" is the logo under the hands.

    Unsolved Mystery

      Hi Sean;
      Yes, CROSS. I cannot turn the hands. All I can do is wind it or push the button. It appears fully wound and the button does not do anything. If you could advise. I guess I will have to open it up to find more :)
      I also want to know if I should take good care of this (somewhat valuable) or is it just a piece of garage sale junk?
