E.N. Welch Mfg. Co. “Garcia”, ca. 1889. A 21-inch refinished
walnut case with a clean finish. The door glass looks original and has a good gold stencil; the dial is painted, the hands are
period but not Welch hands. The 8-day, time and half-hour strike movement is signed, running, and striking on a wire gong. The Welch pendulum bob is as shown in the catalog illustration (Ly, Welch Clocks, page 396) but is badly oxidized. There are
two good labels on the back. No sales on AAC or LiveAuctioneers, two on the Antique Clocks Identification and Price Guide, not
recent. $50–$150.
