24 October 2024
mahogany veneered case in with an old finish in fair condition with some breaks in the veneer on the center strip. Original painted dial is fairly clean, but the center area paint is rough. Short drop movement is correct and the hands are original. Turned feet are later additions. Chimney caps are missing and the eagle splat is modern and looks to have been carved with a Dremel type tool, and is too narrow for the opening. Partial label inside case. Height 33 inches
