C.1866, Ithaca Calendar Clock Co., Horton's Patent Iron Case double dial calendar clock.
Anonymous (not verified)
23 October 2024
This is the "large" model (only 2" taller than the 'small' figure 8 model), using Hubbell's Patent 30-day time only pendulum movement. Except for the "bowtie" between the dials, this clock is all original. The case which was originally plated and painted has lost about 1/3 of its decorations to wear and rust. The dials have wear and water stains. The bowtie is correctly re-made and this is a common item to be replaced on these models as it is not securely held in place and must be removed each time you re-start the pendulum or adjust the calendar. Clock retains original back board with good labels (some wear and water spots but still quite legible). A nice example of an early perpetual calendar clock. Height 21"
