After almost 40 years of corkscrew collecting, I have decided it is "timely" to pass along my TIMELY CORKSCREW CLOCK" to a fellow corkscrew collector. It consists of 11 folding bow corkscrews arranged from a single folding bow corkscrew at 1 o'clock to a 11 piece folding bow corkscrew at 11 o'clock. The 12 o'clock timing is another story. Listed below are the corkscrew clock details.....
1 o'clock--ScrewBase(S-B.) *PBi101: my first corkscrew that started my collection in 1978-simple English cylindrical snap hinge with a bladed helix.
2 o'clock--S-B. PBi120: cylin. snap hinge(c.s.h.), fluted wire helix,button hook.

5 o'clock--S.B. PBi150: c.s.h.-Plain bow, fluted wire helix (center), carriage key, pricker, awl, screwdriver. Christie's auction-#345,9/2/98
