Condition: Case was rather nicely repainted many years ago and has aged to a very mellow appearance. Original dial has scratches, crazing and has darkened somewhat from age. Hands and pendulum are original. Movement is stamped "Baird Clock Co.", and was manufactured by Seth Thomas for Baird. Very clean label inside. These seem to bring $2,000 in advertising auctions. For reference, see Jerry Maltz's book titled Baird Advertising Clocks. Height 31 inches
