has a brass front on an
oak case. The front
door is heavy brass

over the dial. On the
back of the door are
two complete paper

metal dial, engraved and
the numerals are paint

and three original hands. There is also a large original
winding key and an aperture for revolving paper, for
signing in. This is a seven day clock with a date stamp
mechanism. Single wire fusee movement with spot fin-

paper revolving around two drums. Depressing the
lever protruding to the side of the case, advances the

case is in very good condition but missing the bottom
trap door. Very serviceable as it is and
you could not see the door anyway.

unusual Roman style case has Venus de

sides, and other typical Roman stuff, olive
branches, swords, etc. The rich gold plated
metal case is almost 9" tall and in excel-

signed by New Haven, three original

glass in the nice brass sash. Original

1911. This cast metal case is 15.25" tall and about as nice
as you could ever hope to find, to be one year
shy of 100 years old. It is finished in
"Polished Gold Plate", and I judge over
90% of the gold is intact, bright, and
clean. That in itself is unusual for a plat-
ed metal case 100 years old. The clock is
awfully nice but not perfect for there are
faint hairlines on the one piece porcelain
dial that are really insignificant. There is
a chip around the slow/fast arbor at the
12. I would say, that is the worse thing
wrong with the clock. There are four
beveled glasses, not perfect but above
average for crystal regulators. There
are two miniscule corner chips on the four glasses. The
hands, pendulum wind key, hanging Cathedral gong, and
the movement, are all proper for this model. The move-
ment is 8 day, half hour strike on the Cathedral gong, and
it is running. Ly-New Haven #373. $400-$600.
