205.    $200

Seth Thomas “Chime Clock No. 14”, ca. 1911.  The No. 14 had either rods or 5 bells; this one is the 5-bell model.  The 14-inch case is mahogany with just one small nick on the left side.  There is a 6-inch silvered dial behind a convex beveled glass in a bright brass sash.  The Seth Thomas movements are clean and shiny, but the strike and chime are stuck and need attention.  I don’t think it is a serious problem.  It chimes on four bells and strikes the hours on the fifth; the clock is running nicely.  $200-$400.

Can I return my clock if I don’t like it?

 

Absolutely!  Save your packing and box, you have 30 days from receipt to return it if you are unhappy.  If the clock is not as described, or I missed something important and that is not evident from the pictures, I will refund your shipping costs (both ways) as well.  Find another auction company that does that!
