Description
There is no dial, hands, pendulum or weights, and movement is dusty from setting in the open. The gathering pallet for the rack is missing along with bell stand and bell; otherwise complete; has a poor repair on the rack tail that needs attention. It has smooth barrels and flourishes on the rack and casting imperfections on the plates that are typical of American work at the time, and is mounted on what it appears to be it's original seatboard. Pulleys are period. Was cleaned and re-strung, and was setting on a test stand, so the loss of the pallet is recent; some screws improperly replaced. Wheels are all sound and this will respond to restoration. Height of plates 6 1/2"
