22 October 2024
Condition: overall very good restored condition, the lower door made new and the case refinished, dial tablet properly replaced. Best parts of the clock are the original and complete label, original wall paper to the case back, and excellent signature on nice original dial. Old iron weights may be from another clock, but are large and work OK. For complete details on Munger and his distinctive and rugged movement, see the book An Empire in Time, by Russ Oeschle, Helen Boyce, and collaborators, pages 93-97; other examples in Distin and Bishop, page 140. Original Munger examples are bringing high prices, and our estimate reflects the tasteful restorations on this item. Ht 39" [98cm]
