Catalog Description:

C.1845, Brewster and Ingrahams, Bristol, CT, 30-hour brass spring "Sharp Gothic" or steeple clock. The movement is original and the brass springs are intact. This clock has a nice label, original movement and very good original painted zinc dial. The hour hand is original and minute hand is an old replacement, but the spade could be filed off to make a proper pointer. The clock's case appears to have been roughly scraped during refinishing and the curved moldings have been re-veneered and could be improved. The door veneer is original, but the pressed brass escutcheon is missing. A plus is the original "cross" spires which are usually broken on this model. The faux-cut glass stenciled door tablet by William B. Fenn is original and in fairly good condition (these rarely survive in excellent condition). Although photogenic, the general condition is just good. Height 20 inches.
