Mahogany veneered case in original finish with a hairline crack and small repairs on the curved bottom of the case. There are age cracks in the veneer on the access door. The dial has been repainted with some minor stains. Unsigned banjo-style weight-driven movement in good condition, sits on a seat board and is held in the case with a screw through the backboard. Original hands with a repair to the hour hand. This is a very nice example. Height 30 1/2"
