Condition: Brass case movement of about carriage clock size is mounted in an ebonized panel. Overall good condition. There is small piece of veneer missing top, right. The dial and beveled door glass are perfect and the hands are original. Reverse painted glass dial has had minor touch up. There is an old oval instruction label on the rear, and the repair label of H. Carter Bowles, Cheltenham. Movement is sound but will need cleaning; note unique pull-wind-ribbon at bottom of case, and ribbon may need replacing. Height 10.75 inches
