116.           $500

Elmer O. Stennes pillar & scroll, ca. 1970.  I counted seven on LiveAuctioneers, but I have never seen one before.  The mahogany case is 30 inches tall with the center brass urn finial, with curly maple accents.  The veneer on the scroll top shows some lifting and splitting.  The dial is metal, the tablet is unsigned.  The 8-day, time-and-strike, spring-driven movement is German, I believe, but it is not signed on the front and I did not remove it from the case.  I couldn’t persuade it to run.  There is a good label inside.  A couple of sales in 2020, for $500 (Eldred’s) and $750 (Vogt Auction).  $500-$750.
