Antique American Clocks                      July 2021

150.     $175

E.N. Welch Clock Co. “Sembrich”, ca. 1889.  A 38-inch black walnut case with a beautiful finish; the door glass is old, the gilt lettering likely a later addition.  The dial has been repainted, the hands are slight mismatches. The 8-day, time-and-strike movement is signed and running, striking nicely on a cathedral gong.  Good pendulum stick and bob, just missing a label.  It’s hard to be perfect, but this one comes close.  $200-$400.
