Description

the clock is in excellent condition with a great look and tablets with original paint, however the old case is later and not original to the movement. It appears the movement and tablets, etc. came from a very early and well made Willard T-bridge banjo clock, perhaps its case badly damaged, and this later case made to accommodate the parts. The movement and tablets should be worth our estimate. Ht 30"
