Gilbert “1807 8 Day” shelf clock, ca. 1930’s?  This is a relatively large backwind clock, almost 9 inches tall, made of wood with tin strips running up across the face and top.  It is painted in black lacquer; the dial glass is convex, the signed dial silvered with raised numbers and brass hands.  It has a nice art deco look but doesn’t run. $50-$75.
