This a rather nice beveled case wall clock that at first glance looks like a New Hampshire mirror clock. The mahogany veneer is in good condition with only minor repairs. The dial glass and mirror are not original. The panel to protect the back of the mirror is not original. The dial is nice with a little wear to the gilding and some darkening with age, also has an outward bow and has been secured to the uprights with screws in the margin. The E. W. Adams label is an overpaste on a Marshall and Adams label. Elmer W. Adams bought out Marshall in 1836 and these must have been the remaining clocks from the old firm. Strap brass movement. Height 33.75 inches
