205.            $500

Hills, Goodrich & Co. gilt column OG, 1841-1845.  A 31-inch OG case with good flame mahogany veneer and the original glasses; the tablet has been retouched or repainted.  The contoured tin-can dial is greyed and the numbering worn; the hands are period and correct.  The gilded gesso acanthus leaves over the dial have two secured vertical cracks and have been touched up with paint, and then varnished; the banded gilt columns look original. One of the internal side mirrors looks modern, the other looks period.  The 8-day time-and-strike movement is clean and polished, and running like a champ, driven by two proper angled weights that were not fully formed during casting.  There is a period embossed pendulum bob and a dark and worn, but mostly complete label inside.  A good example of this popular model.  AAC sold a similar example last summer for $613.  $500–$700.
