Southern Calendar Clock Co. “Fashion No. 9”, ca. 1889.  A second example here ( with #29) of the Fashion No. 9 made by the New Haven Clock Co.  The case is made of hardwood stained dark walnut; the finials differ from the standard Fashion finials and are also found on the Ithaca Fashion (#30).  The glass in the door is original with the original Fashion lettering.  Black unlabeled paper dials were used, as found here; the numbering is a bit worn, and the brass hands are tarnished.  The 8-day time-and-strike movement is signed with the New Haven logo.  It is running and striking a rich deep gong on the hours and half-hours; the strike is a bit recalcitrant.  The simple calendar is advancing.  There is a good white label inside with instructions and stating that the clock was made for the SCCC by the New Haven Clock Co.  Horton’s sold three of this model since 2017 for $777, $860, and $1075.  $750-$1000.
