143.     $300

Seth Thomas “Office Calendar No. 4”, ca. 1863.  A second example of this popular wall calendar clock, possibly a bit earlier than #142.  Again the rosewood veneer is very good with no chipping evident and all the buttons present.  The glasses are old but both dial pans are twentieth century galvanized steel and aluminum replacements.  The upper dial has some black paint speckling that can be seen on a close look.  The hands are correct.  The 8-day time-only movement is signed, correct to this model, and running and the calendar is advancing.  A black label on the door.  $300-$425.
