This clock is in generally good condition; a welder has made a ceiling bracket for it, and used the original suspension spring, adding a black iron rod with beat adjust that extends down to the movement (hidden behind the gridiron in this foto). The only minus on the clock is a chip repair on the dial at 6 o'clock, on the side showing in the foto; opposite dial is fine. Center sweep second hand is a replacement, counterweighted, and works fine. Height 51 inches
