Silas B. Terry, Terryville, Conn., 30 hour time and strike tandem wind steeple clock, c1850. This is a very rare model using a single arbor to wind the time and strike side of the clock. A similar example can be found on page 184 in "Horology Americana"

mahogany veneered case in an old finish has some small veneer loss on the base. There is a small veneer repair on the left front side at the bottom. The right rear finial has a small piece of the tip missing. The center strip veneer on the door has lifted a little at each end. We believe the tablet is a repaint on old glass. Original painted wood dial has a little wear to the chapter ring and some loss at the mounting pins. There is a very clean label inside case. Ht 19 3/4"
