this rare example is in very good as-found condition with a darkened finish over the grain painted surface, and a few scratches and bumps. The glass retains its simple colorful artwork, most of the original green label is inside, and the maker signature still is legible on the zinc dial, with the "upside-down" movement behind. Ht 11.75"
