23 October 2024
The nice case with embossed moldings has been refinished. The dial has been professionally refinished. 30 day time movement is clean and running; retains original pendulum with damascene bob. For a full description the Prentiss offerings plus patent drawings, see Tran Duy Ly's book titled CALENDAR CLOCKS, (1993), pages 216-221, this model featured on page 219. A label attests to service in 1908 and 19187 by H. W. Wood, watchmaker in Colfax, Iowa. Unlike the Empire where the entire front lifts off, this one is a proper cabinet with right hinged door that opens for service. Height 47 inches
