Antique American Clocks                      July 2021

202.    $250

Seth Thomas “Chime Clock No. 2”, ca. 1914.  A simple 14-inch case in a mahogany adamantine finish, not a chip or scratch to be found.  The silvered dial shows light wear and spotting, about typical; it sits behind a convex beveled glass.  The 8-day, time, strike, and chime movements are bright and shiny and running like champs.  Great sound on the four bells; the hour strike is on one bell.  You can turn the Sonora chime off if you like, but don’t – its beautiful.  AAC sold one last July for $205 and the chimes didn’t work on that one.  $250-$400.
