| Catalog Description:
C.1886, Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, CT. "Atlas" 8-day parlor clock with a quarter-hour gong striking movement (this is an uncommon Seth Thomas movement, similar to that used in the Marcy). It has a fancy walnut case in fine condition with original finish. It also has an unusually good original dial with only one missing grommet. It also has great original bronze decoration glass, original nickel plated gong base and nickel plated decorated pendulum. It also has the original black label inside in the bottom of the case in good condition. The minute hand is original, but the hour hand is replaced (needs only a common spade hand to be correct). This is a fine example of this scarce quarter striking model. Height 22 1/2"
