Rosewood veneer case is not bad for the age. A few small chips on the base and a slight lifting of veneer on the left side, probably from dampness. It sure is not unsightly; I mention it because you can feel it. The dial was repainted some time ago and is very nice. Both Ly-Calendar and Miller's Calendar Clocks, say this miniature calendar runs 8 days, this one runs 14 days here in our shop. The label is only half there but enough to confirm it is this clock. It is pictured in Millers, page 62, and Ly, page 40. Current estimated value in the price guides is $2000. The calendar door is key lock; movement door has only a wood latch.
