Germany Shelf Gothic Animated

Catalog Description:

C.1900, German "MONK" Alarm Clock in good condition, with some restoration. The painted spelter case is made of two symmetrical halves that are screwed together, and the finish has significant dirt and wear. The paint on the monk is quite worn as well; his rigHeight arm is hinged and with a cord going up to the alarm bell. A lever (recently renewed) from the movement rings the bell in the belfry and moves his arm at the same time, with the appearance that he is ringing the bell. The white porcelain dial is excellent. One day movement is dirty, but you can coax it into ringing the bell; someone has cut out the rear dust cover to aid in adjusting the movement, and minute hand is soldered. Still an uncommon clock. Runs and alarms. Height 14" $700-$800
