175.     $75

Welch, Spring & Co. “Round Head”, 1868-1884.  A 27-inch case with rosewood veneer and grain painting on the bezel.  Both glasses are original, as is the painted dial, still in good shape; the hands are also original. There is gilt trim around the lower glass and flocked paper on the backboard.  The 8-day, time-only movement is signed “E.N. Welch”; it will run only for about 30 seconds and will need service.  There is a good label on the back.  $75-$150.
