Catalog Description:
Seth Thomas, "English Cabinet" cased clock, "Wales", ca 1909. 10.75 inches high mahogany cabinet case with ripple molding around the top, brass feet. 4 inch convex porcelain dial under a cast sash and a beveled glass. Neither the wood nor brass has ever been cleaned that we can tell. A really nice clean case. Little hairlines around one wind arbor, nothing serious. 8 day round movement, hour and half hour rack strike on a Cathedral Bell. Factory date on the base but I can't decipher exactly. Been in storage several years, will no doubt need service, even though it is trying to run. Ly-Seth Thomas, page 283.
