TV, War & Cinderella reviews the events and trends of the early 1950s and its impact on the clock and watch industry, as well as the community of Bristol. Content will extend from the close of World War II up to the mid-1950s. ACWM is collaborating with the Timexpo Museum, Ashland (Mass.) Historical Society, Bristol Historical Society, and Bristol Public Library on the project. The exhibit runs through December 2, 2012.
