HORTON'S ANTIQUE CLOCKS JULY 2019
538. $1075
E. Howard No. 5 Banjo, ca. 1875. A nice example, with good but dark grain painting on the front,
a nicely repainted dial, and two good painted glasses. All three glasses are old. I suspect the lower glasses have been
rebacked. There is a scratch in the throat glass, but it is not obvious. Proper hands and a pendulum bob that has been
polished near to death, but the damascening is there. The pendulum tie-down screw and tab are missing, and I believe the base
has been replaced, probably due to a weight-fall. The signed No. 5 movement is running, driven by a No. 5-labeled weight. No maker’s label, but that is not unusual. We have been selling nice examples like this for upwards of $1500. $1200-$1800.
