The case looks to have been overpainted with gold paint on the original gilding a long time ago and shows considerable age with some small loss on the edges. Original painted dial with some wear to the numbers. This model did not have a glass over the dial. Hands are original. No evidence of a label. A full page picture of this exact clock shown in the book "Clocks", by Doug Shaffer, 1980, p. 58. Ht 19.75"
