Marsh, Gilbert & Co. shelf clock, 1832-1834.  A 33-inch case with rebronzed half-columns and splat, original dial glass and a newer repainted lower glass, nicely done.  There is an ivory escutcheon with a key, a wooden dial in very good condition and two period hands.  The 30-hour wooden movement was not tested (weight cords need to be unwrapped); there is a period pendulum bob and two old weights.  A good label inside.  Another nice-looking early clock.  $200-$400.
