Condition: This clock has potential but will need some basic attention. The hour gong is absent, and an hour bell has been added to the rear plate in a position that incorrectly limits the travel of the pendulum. So you will need a gong. The angle bracket for the top right of the movement (from rear) to stabilize the movement in the case is absent and will need to be made. The movement itself is fine and chimes briskly on the bells (both tunes played on the bells). [movement will be removed from case for shipping] Height 19 inches
