[Rarebooks] FS: Strasburg Astronomical Clock 19th Century Admission Ticket for Scholars

[Joslin Hall Books & Ephemera]

Strasburg Astronomical Clock 19th Century Admission Ticket for Scholars.

"The Wonderful Apostolic Astronomical Strasburg Clock - This ticket  
and 5 cents will admit a Scholar any afternoon this week, and next  
Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.”.

The Strasbourg astronomical clock, housed in the Cathedrale Notre-Dame  
of Strasbourg, is the third clock there, and was christened in 1843.  
Its main attraction is an automata procession of figures of Christ and  
the Apostles every day at solar noon, while a life-size automata cock  
crows three times. The clock also features a perpetual calendar,  
orrery, a display of the position of the Sun and Moon, and solar and  
lunar eclipses.

Card. About 2.5”x4”. Minor soil, light wear.  $45
