206.    $150

Sessions regulator calendar store clock, ca. 1908.  The Sessions Clock Co. made several store clock models with very similar styles that I cannot differentiate (see Ly, Sessions Clocks, pages 70-72); this is one of them. It is 38.5 inches tall in refinished oak with a dark walnut stain.   Both glasses are replacements, the upper glass is old and repainted, the lower glass is new and not correct for a Sessions regulator.  The dial is new glossy paper on a tin dial pan, the hands also are not correct for Sessions.  The signed, 8-day, time-only calendar movement is running and the calendar advancing.  Pendulum bob is proper.  No label.  A good-looking decorator clock.  $175-$250.
