Notes:
The collection is assumed to have been collection from the old AJ Generator Shed in the Last Chance Basin. The collection was on long term loan to the Alaska State Museum from the 1960—1970s until December 2013 when the Alaska State Museum dismantled their mining.
Three metal screws from the clock were put into a plastic bag and placed inside the clock.
