We had a later version of this specialty clock in our May 2011 sale (lot 346) with a Waterbury movement, made for a different maker of billiard tables, but this refinished one retains faintly on the dial "Manuf'd by J.E. Carne and Co., Billiard Table Makers, Boston, Mass". This example, however, does not have the outer paper dial ring or other special case hardware, so may be incomplete. The Hubbell marine movement, with its Oct.1865 patent date, was serviced in 2009. Ht 17"
