This one is a double wind, spring movement, time only. The movement is nickel plated and signed. The old dial is original and shows some age. Restoration to the top no doubt includes one or more finials. The three hands are good, it has brass dial rings, brass bob and wood stick, beat scale, and a Lady Minerva head at the top, all look to be original. The 54" oak case has been cleaned and polished, it has three good glasses, and the correct door latch. We have seen nice examples of the Capitol sell from $1500- to $2000. This one does not meet those standards but is certainly cheap at our minimum. LyAnsonia, page 184.
