Gustav Becker three-weight Altdeutsch Vienna, 1870-1895. A 48-inch walnut case in the
Altdeutsch style driven by three brass weights, striking on two rods. It strikes once for each quarter hour on one rod and then
sounds the current hour on the second rod. There is a porcelain dial ring with a brass center ring and two fancy hands. The 8-day movement is signed and there are three brass weights, one a bit dented. Three finials, one not quite a match to the
other two. Both glasses are old; it is running and striking appropriately. $550-$750.
