Condition: Refinished mahogany veneered case in good condition with some veneer loss and repairs. Mirror tablet is original, about half the putty lost.. Original movement was made by Samuel Terry as stated on the label. Original painted dial is clean with some loss to the numbers. Hands look to be original. Splat is old, adapted from another piece of furniture. Smith was later jailed for counterfeiting coins from spare brass. Despite the splat, an interesting NY clock. Height 37 inches [93.98 cm]
