Condition: Virtually like new, only the most minor nicks. Mr. Lipkin bought this clock new from Campos in 1987, and hung it on his wall in New York, and we took it off the wall to bring it here. Interestingly, Foster had a good agreement with Howard Clock Products at the time; he provided brass sidearms and iron weights for some of their models, and they swapped him some movements, so this movement is signed: Howard, Waltham, etc. Moreover, the case construction is identical to the Howard model, including the wooden weight guides in the throat. A nice clean clock. Ht 29"
