Bill bought this clock in 1969 for $55 from Mr. Lindsay, and sold it in 1970 for $75 when it had a frosted glass. The glass got broken in transit, and someone painted a colorful floral display for the door. The hands and pendulum are replacements. Movement hold down boards are new. Dial surface is original, crazed; numerals re-blacked. Mahogany veneer is in good condition, with some veneer repairs and an old finish. "C Jerome" card tacked in bottom of case. Height 20 inches
