Massachusetts, 8 day, time and strike, weight driven brass movement Patent or banjo timepiece. Refinished mahogany and mahogany veneered case has a rough edge on the bottom edge of the bottom door. Painted dial has original paint with an attempted repair to the gold chapter ring and the number 12. The dial looks to be original although there are other holes in the head. The signature is spurious. Both tablets look to be later replacements. Period hands. The dial door glass is missing. The latch to the bottom door looks like the type used by the North Attleboro makers. The movement is attached to the case with a screw through the backboard.
