30-hour, by Augustus Smith Jerome. This little clock is in very good condition, and retains original stenciled tin dial, with minor touchup at 3. The rosewood case retains original finish. Label on rear is stained and missing some pieces, but is legible (now protected under lexan), and touts "Has the patent lever escapement and is a reliable time keeper". Very few of these price leader models survive today, and generally they have suffered neglect. This one is an exception. For a similar model, see Nawcc Bulletin Supplement no. 15, 1986. Height 6 inches
