6.                   $350

Bishop & Bradley pillar & scroll, 1824-1832.  A 31.5-inch case with good veneer – there are two veneer repairs on the scroll top, and the escutcheon may have been replaced.  Two of the brass urn finials are on wooden posts, one is on a metal post.  The feet and skirt are original.  Both glasses are old but the putty is newer; the tablet has been repainted.  The wooden dial is not original to this clock and has some breaks at the top right which have been repaired.  The hands are period/original. The 30-hour time-and-strike movement is running strongly and striking on the iron bell as expected.  There are two old weights and an old pendulum bob, with a good label on the back wall.  $350–$500.
