these early electric wall clocks were noted for their silent operation and innovative small vertical movements, powered by 2 dry cells mounted in the top. This example has its original aged surface, paper dial, and clear wavy glass. Sadly, the pendulum and hour wheel are absent, but worth seeking to restore this rare piece. Ht 37"
