Seth Thomas “Sharon” miniature steeple, ca. 1941. A 14.25-inch-tall birch case with a red mahogany finish. The glasses and dial are as shown in the catalog illustration on page
683 of Ly’s Seth Thomas Clocks & Movements, Vol. 2. The signed dial is faded from overzealous cleaning, the hands are original. There is a penciled note at the bottom of the dial “From Jim Xmas 1946”; I’ll bet his dad liked it. The ST #89 movement is running
and striking on a cathedral gong on the hours and half-hours, running 8 days. There is no label. This and similar models
sell for up to $100 on LiveAuctioneers. $25–$100.
