very few examples of these unusual movements are known, and the consigner had the dial off to observe the unique features. The case appears to be in very good decorated condition retaining some of the gilt stenciled decoration. The original paper label is complete. The original painted metal dial shows some wear and paint losses. The narrow decalcomania tablet, with some loss still clearly depicts an early train. Hands are replaced. It ticks and strikes but was not tested long-term. Ht 12"
