This clock is slightly less than 14" high, but the Italian No. 2's pictured in books are said to be 16" high. Rosewood veneered case is nice, having a few nicks on the base. The round glass is original, bottom replaced, old brass bob, key latch, rosettes, and other parts of the case are good. The dial paper is new, hands not a match, green felt covering has been added inside on the backboard. The 30 hour movement is signed and original to the case. Ly-Welch, page 169.
