Condition: other than the dial having been re-blacked over the original crazed white surface, this clock is in excellent original condition. There are minor items worth mentioning, the bottom inch of the throat broke off, and has been replaced with two brass tabs to hold the throat in place. The original movement is mounted on a shim board that has been there from the start, and is held in place by brass side tabs; there was never a center screw hole in the case. Retains original iron weight, a size between the 1 and 3, not marked, but Howard issue. Great original pendulum with decorative pattern intact. Height 44 inches
