C.1834, William Beach, Hartford, Conn., 8-day time and strike wooden movement, stenciled half column and splat shelf clock. Condition: Refinished mahogany veneered case in good condition with some minor veneer loss and repairs. Bottom glass is missing. Stenciling on the columns and splat has been re-done. Original painted dial is in very nice condition with one small flaked area by 9. Hands are original. Label is unusual in that it states this is a brass movement clock, but actually contains an 8-day wood movement made by Samuel Terry. There is no indication this case ever had a brass movement, and the label guy was just anxious to use the new "brass movement" labels. Height 34.75 inches [88.26 cm]
