No. 32310, with base and mahogany sub base and back, the whole in very good original condition. This model with 3" dial and time only movement had disappeared by the 1917 catalog. A nice feature on this clock is the "special" dial with raised bronze numerals (there is a shadow where 'CCCo' has been rubbed off with normal usage). The mahogany base retains original ebonized finish (with nicks and scrapes along the front edge). The bronze finish on the case itself is remarkable for the ageóthe only minor shortcoming is a series of nicks on the bronze base where a careless owner obviously tossed the key each week on winding the clock. This clock is otherwise a nice original piece. Height 11 inches
