Description
This clock has an 8 day double spring, time and strike movement. It has an older replaced dial paper, porcelain beat scale, polished brass bob, wood stick, bell for the strike, brass dial rings, and correct hands. The 54" high case is black walnut, very clean and polished, has three good glasses, a side door latch, and a Lady Minerva head at the top. The finials are an enigma. They are all alike but there should be four different sizes of finials on the case. The cabinet man did a good job making them, and they look fine, just not correct. The movement is original to the case but the feet were moved to get a better hold to the backboard. Ly-Ansonia No. 597.
