Southern Calendar Clock Co. “Fashion No. 4”,ca. 1885. A second example of this model with a good original finish, a light patina, and three original finials – however,
the tip of the middle finial has been replaced. The door glass is original with the original lettering; the dials are old, but
the calendar dial may have been repainted. The hands are original. The signed 8-day, time-and-strike movement is running
and striking on a brass bell, the calendar is advancing. The pendulum hanger holding the bob is a bench-made replacement, and
the bob is not original. Good labels inside, the roller covers are not too discolored. I did not check the secret compartment
in the back. $450-$750.
