Catalog Description:

C.1900, E. Howard and Co., Regulator No. 70, for Pennsylvania Railroad, in walnut and in good original condition, with some losses. The weight baffle and tie down are lacking; the latch for the bezel is gone and now just a simple hasp; board behind bezel repaired; glass held in with caulk instead of wooden ring. The case has never been refinished and retains 100 years of soot and grime. Original tablet is flaking. This clock was most recently the property of Bernard Lundy, sign painter for the PaRR, and hung in his Philadelphia sign office until he retired in the 1960s, upon which time he received the clock as a "gift". Photocopies of his ID card are included. The dial retains original stencil: PENN'A RR, and the number 617 below. The RR part has been strengthened slightly by pencil. Weight, pulley and hands original. Height 34" $2,500-$3,000
