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.
