Elisha Manross sharp gothic, 1843-1849. A 20-inch
steeple with mahogany veneer and just a chip or two. The dial glass is period, the lower glass and tablet are modern. The dial is glossy paper over aluminum and the hands are not matched and not proper for this model; the minute hand appears to be
a handmade replacement. The 30-hour time-and-strike movement is unsigned; it runs only briefly but will strike on the wire gong. There is a proper embossed pendulum bob and a good label on the backwall. $25–$50.
