Catalog Description:
C.1915, Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, Conn, "OWL ALARM", patinated white metal base with stamped brass movement surround. Condition: the brass canister had a single crack (often there are more). The base retains much of its original finish. The original dial is excellent. Seth Thomas brought this out in an effort to capitalize on the popularity of their "Long Alarm", but the market had already begun to change and neither model was continued after WWI. A nice example of an uncommon model, and a great beginners clock. Ht 10.2" [26cm]
