The base casting has the full cast signature of "Bradley and Hubbard, Patented July 14, 1857'. Note the military hat has a small chunk of iron out on the back side (doesn"t show from the front). Although the paint is old and crazed, it has been applied over the original. Movement and eyes are original +OK, but the hands and dial are from another clock, and the bezel redrilled to fit the case. In the toy world these bring a lot of money. Height 16'
