Elisha Neal pillar
& scroll, 1829-1832. A rare maker with three examples on LiveAuctioneers, one of them being this one. Neal worked
out of New Hartford, CT and was a casemaker, buying movements from Samuel Terry, as stated on the label. The 31-inch case has
a clean old finish; the scroll tips have been repaired and the feet and skirt look original. The brass urn finials are on wooden
posts. Both glasses have been replaced; the dial glass period, the lower glass, with an old but not period tablet, is
twentieth century. The wooden dial is clean but plain, with gilded trim. The hands are Samuel Terry issue. The 30-hour
Samuel Terry wooden time-and-strike movement is running and striking without problem on an iron bell, driven by two period weights
with an old pendulum bob. There is a good label inside. This clock sold in California for $275 in 2024. $200–$400.
