108.    $300

Southern Calendar Clock Co. “Fashion No. 4”, ca. 1885.  A second example of the Fashion No. 4, this one with some serious deficiencies.  The walnut case is clean, the finials old and possibly original; the door glass is a modern replacement (and of course so is the lettering).  Both dials are soiled and chipping badly; the hands are correct but not original. The signed Seth Thomas movement will run but the pendulum spring is broken and will need a new rod soldered on.  The brass bob is beaten up.  The calendar is working, the rollers have been recovered.  If you need a project, here it is.  $300-$500.
