C.1928, Waltham Clock Co., Willard Model presentation weight banjo,
for Bigelow, Kennard and Co., Inc., Boston, with some restoration. This clock has a great set of Boston State House tablets (floral throat). Around 1950 the owner got tired of winding it and had a 110v Telechron motor installed. When the clock came up in a local estate, the old movement and pendulum were packed carefully in a box and sold with the clock. The only thing missing was the weight, which is now a Campos weight, and a bit wide for the throat (if you wind it tightly, it will stick, easiest solution is to screw a weight stop just at the top of the throat). There are a couple of wire access holes in the case back that have been carefully filled. The dial is very good with one minor chip filled in. The movement with proper Waltham trademark and serial No.9147. Also with original gold plated eagle with Waltham die stamp. Movement cleaned and running. Height 41 inches
