(1) this example of a popular model has been restored with black paint and polished top bell surround. The top eagle is not correct. The original green marbleized areas show some crazing. The rear paper label from Glens Falls, New York, is dated 1913. The pierced brass dial has good paper behind. The movement ticks and strikes but was not tested long term. Ht 18" (2) both are in good condition. although there may be absent leaves, with an old bronzed patina on the clock/lamp and black paint on the equestrian. The clock winds, sets and ticks but was not tested long term. We did not plug in the lamp, which shows a "K" trademark on the back. Ht, of equestrian 13 1/2", lamp is 12 3/4"
