Description
Southworth, Leeds County, Canada West, 30-hour weight column with OG cornice shelf clock. This clock is over-restored and has been that way for 40 years. This clock is pictured in A Treasury of American Clocks, Pg. 197, and you will note the following condition is apparent in that photo as well. The veneer on the top and bottom OG molding has been stripped off and the wood finished a maple color. The tablet has been professionally restored. The dial is nice with some paint loss around the winding holes. The columns have been poorly refinished with paint. The case has its original label, specially printed by Seth Thomas, with losses. Height 25 inches
