Norris North pillar & scroll, 1822-1824.  A 29.5-inch case with the brass finials.  The scrolls have been repaired, the feet and skirt appear to be original.  One finial is on a screw, the other two are on wooden posts.  Both glasses are old but may be replacements; the tablet was repainted by Tom Moberg.  The dial is not original to the case and was originally for a standard wooden movement; the old winding holes have been filled and new holes drilled to fit the Torrington east-west movement.  The painting touch up is not perfect.  The hands are period.  The 30-hour wooden movement runs for a minute or two and will strike.  There are two 30-hour weights, an old pendulum bob, and a good label inside.  When in top condition Norris North pillar & scrolls sell for $400–$800.  $200–$400.
