E.N. Welch “Patti No. 1”, ca. 1880.  The rosewood case here is practically perfect; I don’t see any missing parts and no scratches or dents, finials correct.  The three glasses are old, with some of the gold leaf decoration missing on the front glass.  The dial is old glossy paper with a bit of staining on the edges; the Patti hands are present – a plus.  The back wall is flocked in black as it was originally, but this flocking is a replacement. A typical Welch sandwich pendulum hangs from the Patti 8-day time-and-strike movement.  It is running and striking on the hour and half-hour on a nickel bell.  An 18.5-inch classic Victorian shelf clock.  Collectors used to kill to get a Patti No. 1 in this good condition.  $750-$900.
