C.1880, William L. Gilbert Clock Co., "Keystone", 8-day time/strike shelf clock. The rosewood veneered case is in nice condition with some minor chipping on the bottom edge of the base. The case retains original finish, nicely waxed, but with fine age pattern on all surfaces; some loss of finish to left of door. Both glasses are original. The painted dial has some minor paint loss. The movement is signed and there is a small Gilbert label on the back of the case that is partially obscured by an Omaha, Nebraska jeweler's label. Interestingly the delicate front door on this clock makes use of plywood to maintain its integrity. Height 17.75 inches
