Condition: This clock includes the original receipt, signed by E. O. Stennes, dated April 6, 1966, made out to the consignor, Alan G. Tober. Alan's brother Erwin actually paid for the clock, as it was a wedding gift, but Elmer made the receipt out in Alan's name. The original price was $275; Elmer has spelled the model Wessigusset, but we have spelled it according to his price list at the time. Mr. Tober is happy to speak to the future owner of the clock. Not often that we get a clock with full documentation. And a final note, two years after Tober bought this clock, Elmer murdered his second wife Eva, and ultimately went to jail for 28 months. Height 72.5 inches
