| Catalog Description:
C.1886, Seth Thomas, "MARCY", in oak, 8-day, quarter strike on 2 bells, and in good condition with original decaying finish, and some small veneer repairs. This clock has a lot of potential. The wooden gong base is still there, but the gong has been replaced with a bell. (this is a standard nickel plated City series gong if you have one). The original dial has some fading and wear on the numbers, also some minor paint loss around the outer edge, and amateur touch up on couple of numerals. The hands and pendulum are original. The beat scale has lost its silver wash and will need some attention. Original label in case bottom with some losses, but fully legible. Overall a decent item that will respond to restoration. Height 46 inches
