Description
A Quincy collector too the clock to Foster Campos in 2001 and had the case re-gilded. Now Foster had lost his great gilder by this time, and the case came out with a greenish/gold tint to it. The receipt for the refinishing ($400) is inside the case. Retains original Boston Wharf tablets. The movement is properly signed E. O. Stennes, Weymouth, Mass; for an example of the mark, and a foto of sister clock, see Ken Sposato's book American Banjo Clocks, page 183. Our estimate is conservative owing to the finish. Height 44 inches
