C.1835, Connecticut Banjo (attributed to Henry Terry), 2-wt wooden works 30 hour time and strike wall clock, in excellent original condition. This clock hung right inside Ned Howard's parlor and is one of the first clocks many folks would have seen if setting near the fireplace and looking toward the kitchen. The case was nicely refinished some time ago, and dial, tablets and hands are original (minor flaking on tablets). There is part of a book plate with the name Henry Terry pasted into the clock (it is old paper, and has been there since 1866, perhaps when the clock was given as a gift). Uses early Terry style movement with hands that are pinned on. We sold one of these from the Amos Avery collection in 1991, and there is another in the ACW Museum in Bristol, and this one is nicer than either of those. Height 34.75 inches
