Aaron Willard's tall clocks were known throughout the Boston area and influenced the design and production of clocks as far away as Richmond, Virginia. The streamlined production in Willard's manufactory allowed him to make clocks in greater quantities than individual clockmakers had been able to do in the preceding decades. Through his advertisements and labels that guaranteed the design and workmanship of his clocks, Willard promoted his product in local and export markets. Learn more at the link below.
