Within the Spring the clocks were then sold by door to door by clock peddlers who carried the Cuckoo Clocks by means of a rack which was carried on their backs. Whole families would function in their cottages creating the Cuckoo Clocks and every family member had the expertise of producing certain pieces of the clock which was then assembled by but an additional family member.
