Antique American Clocks
Gustav Becker open-well wall clock, ca. 1860.
The GB anchor with crown logo dates
the movement in this clock to around 1860, I believe.
The dark hardwood case is 37 inches long with old glass in the porthole
door and the well covering.
The celluloid dial is yellowed and the center brass ornament tarnished.
I cannot convince
it to run for more than a minute or two; it strikes on the hour and half-hour.
There is a small piece of trim missing on the
front bottom of the door, but its absence is not particularly noticeable.
