the Patti's dial appears new, and its case has an old worn and uneven finish. The fancy pendulum and rear paper label are correct. The hanging gingerbread, made by Ingraham expressly for Adams, has an old finish, a replaced paper dial, rear paper label, and separate alarm unit. The Kroeber "Virgil" case is in a few pieces and needs regluing, and is missing its entire base. Its painted metal dial, with some wear and damage, and double-barrel pendulum are original. Movements appear complete but are sold as is and were not tested. Hts. 19 in, 21.5 in and 28 in
