C.1885, E. Howard and Co., Boston, "Regulator No. 75", in walnut, in generally good as-found condition.
The dial has been re-painted and the hands are replacements. Although there are a couple pieces of trim that need attention (top cross molding and one corner bullseye square), this clock retains its original aged finish with nice patina. Retains original damascene pendulum and "U.S." tablet (would have been in government service). The weight and movement are marked "70", as this clock uses the same operating components as a standard No.70. The movement is properly die stamped with the company name, and has been recently re-strung, however the cord was placed on the outside of the pillars and should be re-routed to avoid pre-mature wear. There are some additional nicks and scrapes, but otherwise a decent old Howard and a hard to find model. Would be worth 5000 dollars if all original. Height 34 inches
