overall excellent original condition. We checked with Campos and Hynes today and their price for the next lyres made will be over $4000. This particular lyre was part of the first batch that Foster made after Stennes' death in 1975. It has a Kilbourne and Proctor movement stamped with a single line, block letter signature "F.S. CAMPOS", which Bobby Hynes confirms was his earliest stamp. This clock is signed on the dial, case, weight and movement [4!], and is a very nice example of Campos' work. Ht 41.5"
