Jeromes’ & Darrow 30-hour time-and-strike
wooden movement in parts. There are notations on the front for both an 8-day and 30-hour movement (Type 7.112) on the front,
but I think this is a 30-hour and not an 8-day. Please correct me if I am wrong. You will have to reassemble, and I think
everything is here, but I can’t guarantee it. I see no damage. $25-$100.

Seth Thomas movement and Mix Brothers
calendar. An 8-day weight-driven, time-and-strike brass movement signed with Plymouth Conn and the ST eagle logo. It has
the calendar lifting rods and armature but lacks the lifting cam, and so will not operate the calendar. The early Mix Brothers
perpetual calendar mechanism appears complete and is operational. $50-$100.

time-and-strike movement with alarm. No maker stamp; could be Jerome or Brewster, or others. $25-$50.
