C.1830, John Conger, Bristol, Conn., 30-hour time/strike wood movement carved column and eagle splat shelf clock. This is an interesting clock by one of the numerous individuals who got into the clock business in the 1830's. The case has been nicely refinished. The veneer is in very good condition with a small piece missing on the lower left block, a small chip on the base and a small piece on the lower right side of the door. The upper glass is original and the mirror looks to be original also. The original wooden back panels that protect the mirror are still in the case. This wooden movement was made by Samuel Terry. There are clocks by Conger with labels that state movements made by Samuel Terry, but this one makes no such mention. Height 36. inches
