Waterbury Clock Co. “Buffalo” calendar shelf clock, ca. 1891. A 27-inch refinished oak case with a good finish and a modern stenciled door glass.  Note the twisted columns on each side. The signed dial holds the original paint with some darkening and staining.  The hands are replacements, and the calendar hand has been repaired.  The 8-day, time and half-hour strike brass, spring-driven movement is signed, running, and striking on a wire gong, and the calendar hand is advancing.  You’ll need to advance it by hand one or more days at the end of February, April, June, September, and November.  There is a Waterbury pendulum and remnants of a label on the back.  AAC sold a walnut model in 2021 for $150.  $100–$200.
