David,

Got the (antique regulator) clock and would have written sooner, but it took me nearly two hours to unpack it. Whoever did the packing was the Picasso...no, check that, the Michaelangelo of the wrapping world. The combination of corrugated cardboard, peanuts, and bubble wrap was breathtaking. Each inch was quadruple wrapped. Even the winder had a special little holder made for it. Kudos to the artist whose job it was to get my lowly Ansonia from Wisconsin to New York in one piece. I was almost tempted to rewrap it to just admire for a little bit longer.
