594.           $50

2 clocks, both need repairs. The small wall hanger is a Seth Thomas “DuBarry”, ca 1928. It is 19 inches tall and has an 8-day time movement. I believe the spring is broken or the click is out of whack. Ly-Seth Thomas #1212.

The large 20-pound brass clock was once a very valuable clock. It was made by Thomas Mercer, an English maker of chronometer clocks primarily. The movement was removed and a $.50 battery movement installed in that huge ball clock with the one inch beveled glass over the porcelain dial. On the bottom is a barometer. The glass is broken over the barometer. I did not check to see if it is operable. You would have to remove the broken glass first. $50-$100.
