Seth Thomas Clock Co. “Ship’s Bell”, ca. 1884.  A 10.5-inch one-day, lever movement that strikes ship’s bells with two hammers.  The case is brass on a wooden backboard; the signed dial is silvered with considerable wear, the hands correct.  I did not inspect the movement.  It is running and striking, and there is a partial label on the back.  Key included.  AAC sold one in January for $177.  $100–$200.
