This clock spent one night in the rain and has raised finish and loose joints to show for it. The movement is identical to a Forestville, but unsigned; the 8-day movement is in good condition with original hands (not rusty). The dial has some paint loss. The mirrors are old replacements, and the silver is failing. The clock has a very nice carved crest. No weights, no pend, no label, no base molding. You could buy this clock for parts or take it on as a restoration. Height 36"
