The only thing that keeps this from being excellent are some minor dings in the pendulum. The movement is serial No.2,208,282, which Terwilliger puts around 1908. This clock is in nice condition, with original finish intact. The movement is dry and could stand oiling but is complete and sound; porcelain dial is perfect and all hardware, hands, weights, pulleys, etc., are original. We sold the sister to this clock in May of 2000 for $1300+. It was serial No.2,168,117, slightly earlier. For additional information on this era, see Clocks of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco Style published by Chapter 28 and covering the 1996 Chicago National exhibit. Height 49 1/2"
