Hi
Can anyone tell me where to find a picture of the geometric clock featured in a Poirot episod.The clock had solid rectangular markings on the hour and quarters but circles on 20 and 25 past marks. Obviously in the DECO style. If no pictures the episode would do
Thank you
Len

If you are referring to the Poirot series that was aired on PBS stations, that series was produced in the UK. I believe it was seen in the US through the facilities of WGBH Boston. From what I've been able to learn, some of the props and furnishings seen in various episodes were authentic pieces from the art deco period. They were quite meticulous in being true to the era. The clock you're thinking of could well be a one of a kind. Probably only the producers could tell you if the item was loaned or rented or whatever or where it might have been found.
