Although this clock was chemically stripped, thus harming the paper mache, you can still make out enough of the original ad to see that what it says is correct. This is a mini case (26') with fancy bow-tie (see "Okonite' model for comparison). Paint is exterior oil base, maroon, heavily applied with ad carefully lettered in white. Original label is 80 percent there; dial poorly repapered; original movement. Note ad for "Kelley"s Headache Cures' is unknown. This would be $2000, if all original. Height 26'
