This is one of the rarer calendar clocks, as they were expensive and unreliable. This is the first one we have offered in 24 years of auctions, and fortunately, it is a very nice one. The rosewood case is in the Empire style with smooth turned columns on either side of the door; it has been nicely refinished. Both the upper painted tablet and the lower gold leaf tablet have survived intact. The double spring time only movement, signed by Laporte Hubbell of Bristol, is an early version with solid great wheels. It ran here for 2 weeks before we packed it. The calendar movement has 3 drums, one with the day of the week, and another 2 with one years worth of dates that change each day as the linen strip advances from the supply roller to the "take up" roller. The calendar mechanism is spring driven and wound ONCE PER YEAR. as opposed to the time movement which is wound regularly. See details in Ly's calendar book, pages 34-35. Dial, hands, rollers & label original and excellent. A fine example. Height 18 inches
