Seth Thomas Sons & Co. “No. 8011”, ca. 1872.  A popular 17-inch cast metal clock with an angel pointing to heaven and a small girl praying next to her.  The case has been repainted, and shows some wear; it originally came in bronze or gilt.  All the details are present, but the right wing has been broken off and re-attached nicely.  The dial is porcelain with some wear around the winding arbors, signed “Seth Thomas Sons & Co., N.Y.”, with some fancy hands that are not original.  It sits behind a thick beveled glass.  The signed movement runs 15 days, time-and-strike on the half-hour. It is running and striking a nickel bell.  There is a metal back cover.  Horton’s hasn’t sold one recently, but the Antique Clocks Price Guide’s most recent sale was at Schmitt’s in 2016 for $275; two 2018 sales on eBay for $243 and $265.  $225-$275.
