211.         $225

Waterbury Clock Co. “Cheshire”, ca. 1893.  A 43-inch oak case with a clean polished finish and all the correct finials and doodads.  The door glass isn’t that old, the dial has been repainted with the Waterbury logo; the tarnished brass hands are as shown in the catalog illustration (Ly, Waterbury Clocks & Watches, page 205). The signed 8-day, time-only spring-driven movement is running strongly, regulated by a Waterbury pendulum.  There are remnants of a label on the back.  A nice example; three recent sales on LiveAuctioneers, averaging $268.  $225–$300.
