Catalog Description:
C.1910, Seth Thomas Clock Co., "Jupiter" 8-day 2- wt, moon dial, bell strike, in excellent condition, with restoration. The oak case was refinished many years ago to a medium caramel color. When the case was restored, two of the top finials were turned in mahogany instead of oak; also the circular trim on the very left of the top gallery was cut from mahogany. The dial, hands, weights, pendulum and movement are original; one top brass trim replaced on one weight. This is a rare clock and these items are important to the serious collector; however we still expect a lot of attention on this good looking clock. This lot includes a letter from the consignor describing its ownership since new. Height 59 inches. $4,000-$6,000
