International Business Machines (IBM) Punch Clock

Description I have done quite a bit of research on this very interesting clock. It truly is amazing! It looks like a grandfather clock but at the bottom are many intricate wheels and a slot with a lever that rings a bell when you "report for work". I have traced the serial number thru IBM archives and dates my clock/ punch or time clock to 1933. It is very heavy as it seems that all wheels and mechanisms are iron. So curious to know if I am the keeper of a treasure!
