Catalog Description:

C.1879, Daniel J. Gale, "Gale Drop Model No. 3" , as manufactured by Welch, Spring and Co. This clock is in excellent original condition. It is formerly from the collection of Thomas Fowler and has been in one person's collection since 1976 (letter inside clock). Mr. Fowler rubbed out the original finish to a pleasant sheen and there has been no additional restoration. The paper dial is excellent, with a few small bubbles where it has raised from the pan (very minor), and some yellowing. Another minor difference is this has a pendulum stick with hung bob rather than sliding bob which is most common for the No.3. This is among nicest Gales we have seen offered. Height 30"
