23 October 2024
Mfg Co, Hamden, CT This detached fusee lever movement is housed in a very nice mahogany case. The dial plate now has a paper dial glued on and someone has painted on: "C. Kirk's Pat." There is a G. Hills, Plainville, CT wall clock (item 238) in this sale that has the same movement. Both of these movements are unusual and made to robust standards. The hands are original, as is the lock on the bezel. Except for the questionable dial, a well made and interesting clock. Height 17 inches
