Description
This is a clean example with original top and feet, and only a small veneer chip on the door. The movement is a proper Seth Thomas. The original dial has stretch marks to the paint and some fading to the chapter ring and numbers. The tablet is new, professionally done in the appropriate style. The label is clean, with some stains, and a piece missing at bottom (still way above average for its age). The finials are period Seth Thomas type. This clock changed hands in 1926 for 75 dollars and that receipt is enclosed. Cord is intact, and with old weights and pendulum; ticks and strikes. Finals at podium. See also lots 378 + 379. Height 29 inches
