Paul Revere's engraved label for this Aaron Willard tall case clock, illustrated in Paul Revere Engravings by Clarence S. Brigham (New York, 1969), plate 57, p. 177, remains on the inside of the cupboard door. Providing detailed instructions for the purchaser as well as identifying the maker and place of work, "Boston", this label is one of three Paul Revere engraved for Aaron Willard after 1792 when Willard relocated his shop to Boston. An earlier version is engraved "Roxbury", Willard's place of work before 1792. It is unclear whether the third label, inscribed "Boston" with an additional line of instruction, dates prior to this Boson label. For illustrations of the three labels see Clarence Brigham's Paul Revere's Engravings, plate 57, 58, p. 177, 179.
