Lot 189
A 19th century American mahogany cased longcase clock, the brass dial signed, signed Mills, Dowling, engraved with an eagle, having an eight day movement, striking on a bell, 227cm high overallCondition report: Looks to be complete, but we have not had it running, as the wires are very twisted which support the weights. Hands do not move, quite as they should when pushed, so it likely needs setting up before it can be used and even then we cannot guarantee it works, as it is very old. The movement does appear to be complete and running free. Has weights, pendulum and key. Door to the hood has lost a pin, so falls forwards when opened. Was collected from an estate, where it had not been running recently. The case is basically complete, but does show the age and wear expected with an item of this age.
