Chauncey Boardman “looking glass” clock with alarm, 1824-1832.  Boardman started out on his own before becoming a prolific producer with others.  Here we have an early looking glass clock (single full door with mirror) with a groaner movement complicated with an alarm.  I’m not sure I’ve seen one of these before.  This clock is in good overall shape and yet very original – the columns and splat hold what looks to me to be the original stenciling, the mahogany veneer is clean and complete, the dial glass is original and the mirror is very old.  The 30-hour movement is running and striking, driven by two square groaner-style weights, and a small alarm weight (untested).  A near complete label inside.  Another clock with no significant flaws.  $150-$250.
