Lever miniature iron case shelf clock. This cute little clock retains much of its original paint and mother-of-pearl inlay. The painted dial has some loss around the outer edge and around the winding holes. The movement, invented by Ralph Terry, is marked, T.D.B. and Co., and had a large balance/ pin lever similar to Pomeroy. Bezel glass is original along with the hands. See similar clock by the same firm, in April 2001 catalog, lot 583 which sold for $400. Height 9 inches
