now associated (married) with a banjo movement of the same period, likely by Dunning. This attractive clock has seen a lot of restoration. The dial and the dial glass are replacements. The numbers and the signature on the dial have been restored. There is evidence from examining the signature of L. Curtis on the dial that despite some touch up, the signature appears genuine. The hands are old, but may not have been made with the movement. The characteristics of the movement suggest that it was made by Dunning, who was an apprentice and in partnership with Curtis; note movement has been set "into" the backboard to keep handshaft away from the glass. The case itself has proper dovetailed corners and the beveled edge door frame has always been with the case. Runs OK. Height 32 inches
