Condition: other than the cord will need re-newing which is a normal maintenance item, this clock is in very good condition. One wheel has had 2 teeth repaired. We suggest buyers familiarize themselves with NAWCC supplement from 1989 by John M. Anderson, and also with the Jan 1, 1944 Saturday Evening Post, which chronicles Smith's work The late Ward Francillon, whenever the subject of Charles Smith came up, said that Smith produced a clock that was equal to or better than any produced in 19th century Connecticut. Smith died in 1946, shortly after producing this clock, his last clock was No. 614. We expect extra interest in this unique timepiece. Height 14 inches, with pendulum 55"
