Catalog Description:

C.1830, E. and G. W. Bartholomew, Bristol, Conn. 30-hour WW, stenciled half column and splat shelf clock, as-found, with major restoration. The case has been refinished and stenciling absent from columns. The column blocks and splat have most of their original stenciling. The numbers on the dial have been touched up. The original tablet is badly flaked but restorable. The feet are replacements. The largest problem is the changed movement which has been converted from a 32 to 42 tooth escape wheel (originally in a longer case), along with new winding barrels to allow for the shorter drop. Label dark but legible. It does look good and run; our estimate is based on the value of the parts. Would have been $1500 if original. Height 28"
