Several pluses with this old shelf clock, gold gilt around the original glass. Some putty remaining. Most of the old black label remains inside on the base; seldom seen 3 jar pendulum; replaced 2 piece paper dial. 8 day movement strikes on a nickel bell. The mahogany veneer case is 17.5" high, very nice except the very bottom board where veneer is chipping slightly. The one place in front is unsightly and a little mahogany stain would have hidden it quite well. Ly-Welch #355.
