In 2001 National Science Museum bought a Japanese Hanging Clock with single foriot which has been owned by the late Mr. Chester W. Howerd who lived in Kamakura. From the sign on the back of the clock we can know that the clock was made by Risuke Katsu in the 20th year of Meiji (1887) who lived in Nasubikawa, Ena, Gigu-Prefecture. For the change of the time system to Europian hour in the 6th year of Meiji (1871) Japanese clocks can't be used any more, therefore thier production reached the end. Risuke's clock is placed at the end of the history of Japanese clocks production and should be very important material when we compose its history.
