Waterbury Clock Co. 30-hour steeple, ca. 1880.  A 19.5-inch case in figured mahogany veneer with some chips, mostly along the left side base; the finish has been cleaned.  Both glasses are old, the tablet original with some losses. The metal dial is old paint with some chipping, the hands period.  The 30-hour time-and-strike movement is signed and running, striking a wire gong; the attached alarm (not tested) strikes an iron bell.  There is a good label inside.  $50-$100.
