Tallest, 11", and brightest is the Sunflower which is unsigned but shown in Ly. Its paper dial has a toned area at the 10. The Alma, with its standing cupid, has a much darker patina and excellent porcelain dial, ht 8 1/2". The Jennings has just a few darker areas on its old rich plating, and its porcelain dial and beveled glass also are fine. The horse head is well done, and the inkwell retains its little cup, ht 6". All 3 tick but need service.
