Jerome & Co. “Anglo-American”, 1857-1904.  The New Haven Clock Co. bought out the Jerome Manufacturing Co. in 1857 and began selling clocks under the “Jerome & Co.” label in England until 1904.  As found here, the movements were stamped with the New Haven logo.  This 27-inch walnut round-drop clock shows extensive light wood inlays, as is typical of these export clocks.  The 11-inch glossy paper dial is over a replaced galvanized dial pan.  I don’t believe I would accuse either glass of being old; the hands are correct.  The 8-day time-and-strike New Haven movement is running but the strike is about 10 min after the hour, indicating that the strike-set arm will need some adjustment.  There is a New Haven pendulum bob.  There is a good label on the back, not often seen on these clocks.  $125-$200.
