Seth Thomas Clock Co. “Parlor Calendar No. 9”, 1886. A
wonderfully ornate calendar clock; the walnut case is just under 30 inches tall with two old glasses and two dials repainted by The
Dial House. The hands are correct. I believe the crest on this clock is a modern replacement, with the ornamental balls
and center ring in a lighter color. The Seth Thomas 8-day, time-and-strike movement is running without issue, striking on the
cathedral gong, and the calendar date hand and day roller are advancing. A ‘Do not oil’ label inside and the date stamped on
the back. Schmidt’s Antiques sold a similar example in 2020 for $2500. $1200-$2000.
