C.1835, Porter, Carter and Co., Otis, Mass, Pillar and splat short-drop shelf clock with 30-hr time and strike wood movement.

23 October 2024
Condition: The mahogany case has an older finish, the stenciling on the columns and splat are original. There is only stenciling on the top and bottom of the columns, but there may never have been stenciling in the middle portion of the columns. The upper glass is old with new putty, the lower mirror tablet is old and held in by wood. The dial has its original paint but does not fit the opening of the door well (the 12:00 is cut off and there is space under the 6:00 position) and may not have started its life out with this clock. Height 28 inches
