32.      $400

Seth Thomas “Lincoln” ca. 1890.  A 28-inch golden oak case that has been cleaned, but not perfectly – there is still dark stain in the edges and corners.  The door glass has been replaced and the gilt bank stencil added. The zinc dial has been repainted with the ST logo; the hands are as shown in a catalog illustration.  The dial bezel is brass, as is the gong mount, weights, and faintly damascened pendulum bob.  I don’t believe the weights are ST issue, and the strike weight is larger and the top rim is detached.  But they work; the clock is running and striking on the hours.  The 8-day A-frame movement is signed and there is a dark white label on the inside bottom.  No date on the back.  $500-$800.
