8-day movement strikes half hours on a coil gong, and alarms on a bell. 22 inches high oak case, original but crusty with all the finishes applied since 1915, varnish and who knows what else. The clock is original and complete, with old glass, dial, pendulum, alarm, etc. If you like to spend your time fixing up old clocks, this one is for you. I didn't try to make it run, just too dirty.

This unusual clock with its twin, "Atlas", uses a movement that strikes quarter hours on two cup bells (Bim Bam), and hours on a Cathedral Gong.22.5 inches high case is made of walnut, some burl used, full turned columns with deep carving-etchings, same on the base and top. Carvings also used on the top. The clock has been used, not placed on the living room mantle just for show. It has not been abused but does have nicks and slivers on the base and top. You only see them on close inspection.

24 inches oak case is near perfect, everything is original, 8 day, strike and alarm, running. A house painter repainted the old dial, otherwise both clocks are near perfect. The bases are different, Right is 1 inches taller, the size of the movement box varies by .25 inches, labels are different, and the glasses were never on the same model clock twice. I do not get many calls for oak kitchen clocks, but I will say this, we have never had two nicer or more original than these. Ly- Gilbert No. 1191.

23 inches oak case is near perfect, everything original, 8 day strike and alarm, running. The bottom side pieces may look slightly lighter than other parts of the case but they are the same color. Must be the camera flash.

Stands only 17 inches high, complete and original throughout, two label on the back, special pendulum with a slow-fast adjuster, glass near perfect, original key, and original dial and hands.

This is one of six clocks in their "Commerative" series. Many collectors have been searching for years to find certain clocks to complete their collection. This clock is the least difficult of the six. The set is identical except for the embossed heads at the top of the cases. They are all pressed oak, 24 inches high, have 6- inch dials, 8-day movements, and half hour strike. Some came with alarms as this one did. This clock is complete, no repairs or damage, and all original. Ly-Welch, pages 197-199.
