104.    $500

Seth Thomas “Umbria”, ca. 1900.  A 40.5-inch oak case in an Old Oak finish with a 15-day, time-only movement.  The glasses are old, the dial looks original with a bit of flaking on the upper left, and some soiling.  The hands are correct.  The pendulum bob needs some polish.  The case was formerly stained red and has been refinished; you can see the old stain on the back of the crest and behind the dial.  The Seth Thomas No. 40 movement is rugged and running. No label.  Horton’s sold one in 2018 for $600.  $500-$750.
