HORTON'S ANTIQUE CLOCKS JULY 2019
546. $125
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.
