Description
That would date this clock to the late 1800Õs as the TH trademark was discontinued after the merger. The movement is 8 day, striking bim-bam on two standing gongs, on the quarter hours, and strikes one hammer on one gong on the hours. This is a very attractive walnut case standing 19-1/2 inches high. There was a lot of brass used on the case, the 4 finials, railing and buttons on the top, ornaments and buttons several places on the front. There are door latches on front and back doors, 4 wood feet, 2 columns in front with some brass and turned bases and capitals. The large brass dial plate has applied ornaments in the corners, a separate brass chapter ring on top of the brass plate, and the inner dial of a rough brass design. The clock is running but would operate better with service. The case also needs some Nu-Life or similar polish.
