Seth Thomas Clock Co. “Chicago”, ca. 1874.  A 17.5-inch case with rosewood veneer and a polished finish.  The brass has been polished and the gilding repainted; both glasses are old, the tablet repainted in a style typical of this period.  The numbering on the dial has been strengthened, not quite professionally; the hands are correct.  The ST 8-day, time-and-strike movement is running and striking on a wire gong; there is an alarm hooked up but not tested.  A good label from Thomaston inside.  This clock is a member of the “City Series”.  $100–$200.
