458.    $10

Heco swivel mantel clock, ca. 1960.  HeCo stands for Henry Coehler & Co., a NY importer from Germany. The clock was probably made by Kundo.  It stands 8 inches tall on a marble base in a swivel mount.  The brass is tarnished and worn.  There is a convex glass over the dial, which winds and sets from the back.  The dial is signed Heco, 8 days 4 jewels, the lever movement is signed Henry Coehler & Co.  It runs for a bit but stops frequently.  Anniversary clocks and cuckoo clocks seem to be most common from Heco, but they sold other clocks similar in style.  $10-$25.
