Antique American Clocks January 2021
12. $1200
Baird Clock Co. “Walkden’s Inks” advertiser, ca 1894. This English advertiser clock
is 31 inches long and is shown on page 134 of Baird Advertising Clocks by Jerry Maltz. It has been repainted and may not have been
originally white; the one shown in the book is in a darker color with light-colored lettering. The glasses are old but may be replacements;
the paper dial is original and shows yellowing and wear, but the Baird Clock Co. imprint is still visible. The hands are correct,
as is the pendulum bob. The Baird-signed movement, time only, 8 days, is running vigorously. A Walkden’s advertiser sold
at Schmitt’s in 2017 for $1800. $1200-$1800.
