Condition: this clock has had a hard life and is in fair condition. The paper dial has been wet, is stained, and is separating from the pan; numeral 4 is filled in with another piece of paper. The case has been totally re-painted, including gold paint on the lettering (should have been silver paint). For reference, see J. Maltz book titled Baird Advertising Clocks , pages 94-95. Retains original movement and correct pendulum. Inside label is dark, but legible under strong light. We have seen nice examples of this clock fetch over $2000. Ht 30.5" [77.5cm]
