Catalog Description:

Seth Thomas Clock Co. City Series clock called the, "Omaha", ca 1886. This is another great clock in that series that always turns my head when I see one. Seth certainly knew how to make nice parlor clocks. From everything I can tell, it is all original, clean, running, and still has most of the gold stripes on the front of the 19 inch walnut case. 8 day, strikes a Cathedral bell. Unusual, but even the dial is old and not repainted. Black label in the base. One of 5 or 6 special pendulums Seth made for this group of clocks, this one is nickel with the initials "ST" on a brass emblem, right in the center. I will get real picky and tell you there are 3 small holes in the lower backboard. Probably Bubba got a new drill for Christmas and had to tryit out. There is no logical explanation for them. Ly-Seth Thomas No. 216.
