this clock lived for most of its life in Canada, and has a 1954 repair label from Emile Jacot, Quebec. The top outer bezel has a veneer repair at 6, and the entire case has been nicely refinished; a small 1 x 9 trim board is missing from the very bottom of the case (does not show). Time dial pan is original, the surface re-done by the Dial House is top rate. Long, round iron weights are original, Nice labels inside, well preserved; bottom tablet is original; pend has some dings. Uses the early "upside-down" movement, as shown in Ly's Calendar Clock book, page 341. A clean example of this model. Height 53 inches
