Condition: overall very good to excellent condition. The walnut case was refinished maybe 40 years ago, and now with nice patina. Dial is original with some age darkening. Pendulum, gong and case hardware are original as well. The clocks were manufactured for Morse by E. N. Welch of Bristol, Conn. Both rear labels are dark, but 90% and legible. For more details, see Tran Ly's book titled CALENAR CLOCKS, page 44. 1997 price guide was $750. Height 22.5 inches [57cm]
