Edward Breslin [was] a Toronto-born business executive and a graduate of the University of Toronto in Commerce and Finance.  In 1939 he founded Breslin Industries Ltd., one of the country's leading manufacturers of lamps and shades“.  Samuel Breslin joined the company later.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBreslin Industries' advertised product lines were all kinds of lamps, lampshades, and novelties (apparently including clocks). These were typically sold in furniture and lamp stores, rather than in watch and jewellery shops where Snider clocks were found.  Based on directory listings, Breslin Industries remained in business at least to 1980, if not longer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is in good vintage condition and clean.
