May be Howard's most popular clock. It was used in schools, government buildings, and most all railroad companies used this model in their stations. Made in five sizes, this being the smallest at 32 inches long, and the smallest dial n 12 inches. This case was made of light oak. You can see faint remains of paint, smoke and tar, in some of the veins. If has been refinished inside and out, now is clean and smooth as a baby's bottom. The old dial is original, perhaps lightly cleaned but doubt it, top glass held with original putty, bottom like new and may be. It is old glass, but just too nice to be original unless rebacked professionally. Correct old and original weight, stamped "70". The metal slide for the weight was professionally replaced. Anyway, the clock was restored to like new, and looks better than new, in my opinion. Movement is 8 day, weight driven, running. Old pendulum is damascened and held in the pendulum tie down. Ly- American, page 123.
