clock, ca 1835. Rare design, full length carved
columns, modified cornice top, portion of case with
glass separating the doors. There is
no label, only one iron weight, top
glass has mostly original putty, not
sure about picture in the middle or
the lower glass. Old wood backing
the lower glass. The mahogany
veneered case is just under 38" tall,
has loose veneer all over the base,
some veneer chips on the lower
door. Wood dial is average, hands
and bob are period, larger brass bell,
and compounded pulleys on the
sides. The escape wheel has 36
teeth. With the weight compounded
should it not run 8 days The one
weight is an 8 day weight. Top door has lock and ivory
escutcheon, bottom door has neither. A lot of potential
if you like to restore early clocks. Several books show
an identical clock and movement made by Jeromes &
Darrow. $250-$500.
Connecticut, U. S.A.", 8 day OG clock, ca 1835-1840.
OG case is 29" tall, only a few
tiny veneer tics, mostly corners,
veneer has a lot of variations in
the grain. Old bottom glass, no
paint, good wood dial with some
fading and a little soiled, but over-
all nice, very good inside label
very minor paper loss. Picture of
the Forestville factory on the
label. 8 day brass movement is
signed by Forestville. Period iron
weights, pendulum bob, and coil
made 32" walnut case, copied from an
original more than likely. It could be
factory made or home workshop
made, but either way it is a good
looking, well constructed clock. The
8 day movement is time and strike,
simple calendar, and signed Japan.
After looking under the dial I believe it
was made in a home workshop using
parts bought from a US supplier. $100-
$150.
strike, ca 1880. It is missing either a top ornament or
something more substantial. One
together to hold the weights for the
picture. One brass weight is very
nice, the other has one cap loose and
several good things. It has a great
two piece porcelain dial with large
numerals hands are very nice and
signed, "Carl Sucky & Sohne /
Wien". The 8 day movement is not
signed but does have a serial num-
and is in very good original condition otherwise. $250-
$400.
1885. The 33" high case is ebonized, and apparently
never had anything on the top or
base, unless the case was
reworked and any holes or slots
were camouflaged. It has three
good glasses, short columns on the
top and base. The 8 day movement
is mounted to a wood seat board
that slides into a wood bracket
mounted to the case. All case parts
are very nice including the two
piece signed porcelain dial, old
hands, brass bob, wood stick, and
the 8 day unsigned brass move-
ment. There are two hammers
striking two coil gongs attached to
the back of the movement. The
two springs need attention, appar-
ently the clicks are not catching. I
cannot ascertain if it is only a
Sonnerie strike. It is what it is.
$250-$400.
"Atlanta", ca 1875. There is a lot of hardware inside
signed and still has the Geneva

knob is also silver colored.

the Omaha, have some gold stripe decorations around
the case edge. The gold is still holding. The case has an
edge nick or two, otherwise is in very good condition.
A good starting clock for City Series collectors. Ly-
