Antique American Clocks
German shelf alarm clock, ca. 1880.
A 14-inch tall walnut case with an old finish.
flat glass in the door over a silvered dial with an alarm ring in the middle that you turn to set.
The alarm strikes on two
nickel bells above the movement; an arm on the right side turns the alarm on and off; when it is off the window in the dial shows
The 8-day movement is unsigned; it is running but I did not test the alarm.
There are three openings in the
dial, but the center bottom opening does not seem to be used on this clock.
I don't believe I've seen a German shelf alarm before.
