265.             $10

Sessions Clock Co. “Copley” miniature steeple, ca. 1932.  A 15.5-inch mahogany case with a crusty finish, evidently never cleaned.  The glasses are original and as shown in the catalog illustration (Ly, Sessions Clocks, page 238), with urn finials on each corner.  The “Old Ivory Colored Art Dial” shows some discoloration, with the Sessions name, and the hands are correct.  The 8-day, time and half-hour strike movement strikes on a small cathedral gong; the time-side spring is either broken or unattached and so it will not wind.  A repair will be needed. It does strike.  A couple of older sales on LiveAuctioneers.  $10–$50.
