F. Kroeber Clock Co. metal novelty alarm clock, ca. 1880.  Although Ly’s book, Kroeber Clocks, is comprehensive, Franz Kroeber was prolific, and this clock did not make it into Ly’s compendium.  It stands 9 inches tall with a nickel finish over a bronze detailed casting with a 3.5-inch signed paper dial and a beveled flat glass.  Some of the nickel finish is worn to where you can see the copper base.  The 1-day backwind movement is housed in a nickeled tin can with an alarm function that you set and wind on the back.  Both the clock and the alarm are working.  I could find several similar models in the Antique Clocks Price Guide, but not this model.  $100-$200.
