Seth Thomas ships clock, with advertising on the dial, “Albina
Engine & Machine Works Inc. / Portland, Oregon. U.S.A.” The 8 day movement is double wind, time only, and is running. The bezels
are 8 ½ inches, the painted dial is 6 ¾ inches. Everything looks to be original, shows normal wear and tear for the age of the clock.
Earliest repair date on the back of the clock is “1930”. I figure it is ca 1921. $500-$750.
