(3)Footnotes:The case of this clock is an interesting early variant, sitting between the earliest 'one piece' cases of the second quarter of the 19th century and the later fully formed 'multi-piece' cases of the post 1860 period. During the transition from one case style to the other, most early forms used an opening rear door, such as that found in lot 30. This example however, has a solid door thereby constantly protecting the movement from the ingress of dust and fingers. All of the functions of the clock can be activated and adjusted through the shuttered apertures, even fast and slow fine tuning.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
