Catalog Description:

Custom Made Grandmother Clock, approximately 1975, using a C.1850 Howard and Davis regulator movement. The solid mahogany case has been scaled to size from a Joshua Wilder grandmother. Case is well made, doors with friction snaps, with bracket feet. The movement is from a watchman's clock, and the cock and link to the recording unit has been removed from the front plate of the clock. It has a store regulator bob adapted to a period wooden grandfather stick. The lead weight has been cast in a round tin can and is more than adequate to run the time only movement reliably. The arched painted dial has good detail with floral decorations, and the hands are the original with the movement. See also lot 194. Height 61 inches
