150.     $200

Forestville Mfg Co. triple decker, 1835-1839.  A showpiece triple decker from JC Brown’s company. Perfect veneer and finish on this 32-inch case with two new tablets on new glass and one old dial glass.  The wooden dial has been repainted, the hands are period.  The movement is signed and running, striking on the wire gong, driven by two old 8-day weights; there is an excellent label inside and tin dust covers over the pulleys on top.  Not a thing to complain about here. $200-$400.
