78.      $500

Seth Thomas “Regulator No. 6”, 1885.  A beautiful walnut case, 49 inches long, with an old patina.  The door glass is old but likely replaced, the dial likely an old repaint with the ST logo and name.  The three hands are correct.  The dial bezel is nickel, as is the weight, pulley, and damascened pendulum bob.  The unsigned, 8-day time-only movement will run for about 10 minutes before stopping and will need service.  There is an old black label on the bottom inside, and the date of manufacture stamped on the back.  These clocks have been selling for around $1000 as of late.  $600-$1000.
