the case retains its original finish. The period Pennsylvania case is appropriate to this movement, but has indications that it is associated. The center plinth is cracked below the cap and needs to be reglued. An approximately 4" piece of molding at the rear of the hood is broken and will need to be reattached. The trunk door has been restored with a wood panel after having been glazed in the past. The dial has minor flaking but is in otherwise good condition.
