Daniel Pratt, Jr. shelf alarm, 1835-1839.  A 28-inch case with a 30-hour, time, strike and alarm wooden movement.  The case is veneered in mahogany including the splat, in excellent condition. Note the OG-form side trim.  The dial glass is likely original, the mirror likely an old replacement.  The wooden dial is clean and bright, the hands period.  The wooden movement has a replaced strike gear, it will strike but the time side is stuck. This is a Villet restoration, and so I am sure it will run with some coaxing.  The alarm was not tested.  Three proper weights and a good paper label.  $150-$300.
