Waterbury Clock Co. “Hudson”, ca. 1893.  A 23-inch walnut case in the original finish, very dark, thick, and crusty.  The door glass is probably original; there are two incorrect finial replacements behind the balls on top. The painted metal dial has been touched up extensively and still has considerable chipping.  The hands are close but mismatched, the fancy adjustable pendulum is as shown in the catalog illustration but with a replacement hand indicator.  The signed 8-day time-and-strike movement is running and striking, there are bits of a label left on the back.  There is an unconnected alarm. $50-$100.
