718.      $50

“E. N. Welch Mfg. Co. / Forestville, Conn. U.S.A.”, mantel clock simply named, “Column”, ca 1878. The 24 ½ inch rosewood veneered case is a very nice-looking clock, I suppose because of the rosewood’s special wood graining. There is a door knob/latch, both glasses are replacements, and rosewood half columns on the sides. Inside is a complete label, coil gong, brass pendulum, paid of iron weights, a painted zinc dial that is all original and very nice, pair of old hands, and the 30-hour brass movement. Ly-Welch Clocks, page 163. $75-$150.

Hanging clock, sometimes called a “store regulator” or “shop clock”. The 8-day movement is not signed, there is no label or names anywhere. It has a new paper dial on the pan, the movement does not look new, but the case certainly does. So let’s call the clock contemporary. The pendulum was not with the clock but I am sure it is in one of the 100 boxes of stuff that came from the owner. When I find it, I will put it with the clock. I found the pendulum, it is correct, brass and wood stick. $75-$150.

Seth Thomas Clock Co. Plymouth Hollow, Conn. early mantel clock simply called, “Column No.3”, and I expect it was made about 1863. As you can see the case is as clean as a pin, has cleaned and polished and no veneer needed to be repaired. There are no veneer chips except one on the base, right side, just needs to be glued down. I suppose the tablet is a later addition but the installation was well done. The top glass is original. The printed material says this model was made of rosewood, case standing 25 inches tall. The dial looks really well for its age. The 30-hour movement is time and strike, and performing properly. There is an old coil gong, pendulum, and hands. The label is near complete. The movement is signed properly. Ly-Seth Thomas, #1739. $75-$150.
