perpetual calendar wall clock, with restoration. This very pretty oak clock is in nice condition with a refinished case, and the bottom bracket newly made. Both dials are in very nice condition considering their age. The wooden dial surround looks original, however the hand painted advertising appears to be recent, approximately copied from an original (Leon Richmond owns the one with the original Seal Skin and La Velnette Cigar ads). It has been distressed and covered with an antique wash to make it appear old. An original clock would be worth 4000 dollars. Height 36 inches
