236.    $25

Hatain miniature round-drop, ca. 1920.  Even smaller than #235, this miniature Japanese clock is just 17.25 inches long.  The case is walnut, the dial glass newer, the lower glass original with the “Hatain Made in Japan” in gold lettering, with some wear.  The dial is paper on the original pan, the time-and-strike movement unsigned; I think it is 8-day. It is running and striking a wire gong.  Pendulum bob a replacement, no label, although there used to be something on the back. $25-$50.
