248.    $25

Waterbury Clock Co. ship’s bell, ca. 1925.  An 8-inch ship’s wheel bezel over a 4-inch silvered dial. The bezel is hinged but the hinge is broken, and the bezel will not stay in place.  It is mounted on a wooden base that I think is home-made, as this model is shown in Ly’s books on Waterbury clocks.  The clock is running and striking ship’s bells. There is significant oxidation to the nickel case.  $25-$75.
