The refinished crotch mahogany veneered case is very nice condition with a minor veneer repair below the left steeple block and a little chip on the peak. The lower tablet is exceptionally nice with a cut and frosted mirror glass with original cardboard backing. The upper glass is old but looks to be a replacement. The dial, hands and movement are original. The case houses a 1st version of Kirk's patent iron backplate with full cups and repeating strike movement. This movement is pictured in Ken Robert's book on Ives, page 216+222. The movement retains its original brass springs. The dial is stamped "E.C. Brewster" on the lower edge. Height 20.25 inches
