A well made copy of a Diamond Head banjo in mahogany in original finish. Whoever made the case was very talented. The painted metal dial has what looks to be a smoky stain on the outer edge and couple small stains. The stamped logo on the movement has been ground out, but it looks to have been made by Kilbourn & Proctor. The clock has a stamped E. O. Stennes lead weight, from another clock. No numbers or dates on case. The signed "Daniel Munroe, Boston" dial is wrong as it conflicts with throat glass that has the location correct.
