Side picture shows the 30-hour lyre movement signed by Terry and Andrews, over paste label, and the beautiful figured rosewood veneer case with four spires. The case is 19 inches high, excellent rosewood veneer, four original fine turned finials, only one with a tiny chip on top. The painted dial shows some wear and has a coat of varnish presumably to hold the paint. It has a very nice reverse painted tablet that looks original. The movement is good and running. You must read Lee Smith's article in the April 2000 Bulletin, page 232, about an identical clock. This clock should validate the authenticity of Lee's clock. Schmitt's Auction sold an identical clock without an over pasted label, October 2001, for $1320.
