Seth Thomas “Office Calendar No. 3”, ca. 1863.  Always a popular model (the “Peanut”); this one has the original rosewood veneer with an old and somewhat spotty finish.  Some wear to the varnish, but no veneer repairs that I see.  Both glasses are old, the dials repainted by The Dial House in 2014; there is a key for the door.  All hands are correct.  This is an early ST calendar model; this one is just 23 inches tip to tip.  It contains the standard round movement, double-wind time only, 8-days.  It is unsigned, running, and the calendar is advancing.   The last one sold by Horton’s was in January of 2019 for $2465; this clock sold in 2016 for $3250.  $1600-$2800.
