Note that the dial and hands are similar to lot 339. The movement is complete and sound, but might benefit from service. There are no breaks nor apparent repairs to the case. This clock sold new for $52, a substantial sum at the time. This fanciful case has dolphins for feet, cherubs at the top, busty ladies and below the clock an eagle with wings spread; above the dial, a goat with big curly horns. Height 19.5 inches
