Seth Thomas “Sonora Chime Clock No. 264”, ca. 1914.  Eight bells and nine hammers, playing Whittington and Westminster chimes, or alternating the hours with both.  A 14-inch mahogany case with blond wood inlay in front and a silvered dial behind a convex, beveled glass; some wear to the dial.  Running and chiming on cue.  I cannot find that Horton’s has sold an 8-bell ST clock in the last eight years.  Schmitt’s sold one (not this model) in 2017 for $3600.  There are a couple of sales of ST 8-bells on LiveAuctioneers in 2018 for $2200 and $3000.  These guys are not common.  And of course, it sounds great.  $1200-$2400.
