C. S. Sperry, New York", 8 day steeple, double fusee.

This old clock needs a good home where restoration is their first love. The mahogany case, just less than 20 inches high, will require the most attention. Some has been completely removed and stained, some is loose, some is chipped, and then there are places where it is good. The cone shaped finials aren't bad, may need to be retipped. The glasses are old, not positive they were always in this case. The zinc dial won't need anything, very little paint loss. The door hardware, bell, pendulum, are all fine. The old label goes almost top to bottom on the backboard. No doubt the movement will need to be serviced. It is dirty, but complete. If you like rare early clocks, here is a challenge.
