Condition: this clock rolled around in a child's toy box and has a bunch of scrapes and his turban is chipped at top, but no major losses, and the hands and tray are still intact. We've called this model the Genie in the past, until we came across an old ad from Gravolet in New Orleans, who identified it as the Sheik. Ht 8" [21cm]
