Dey Patents Company Probable Production Schedule
The Syracuse Journal published a story about the Dey Patents
Company on June 24, 1899 which stated that "nearly 3,000" clocks
were in use at that time in the US, Canada, England, Australia, and other
countries. While the records of the company are lost, I have estimated the
production schedule based upon a starting year of 1893 and 100% production
growth in each year until 1899. Each Dey Patents clock has a brass tag with
a serial number stamped on it. Thus, an approximate date of manufacture
can be determined using my theory of production and a serial number.
