Description

Smith & Goodrich 30-hour OG, 1847-1852. A 26-inch case with good mahogany veneer and two old glasses that are likely replacements; the period tablet of “Market Place Quebec” shows very few losses and has been backed to protect it. This tablet lithograph is probably based on a lithograph published by A. Bourne in 1832, as shown here. I have not seen this tablet before. The metal dial shows typical wear, the hands are period and correct. The 30-hour, time-and-strike movement is unsigned, driven by two 30-hour weights (included); it is running and striking without problem. There is a good label inside with some oil staining and losses. $100-$200.
