DESCRIPTION:
Jerome & Co., New Haven, Conn., 8 day, double wind spring powered brass lever movement made by LaPorte Hubbell, Bristol, Conn., with calendar mechanism patented by Alonzo Boardman in 1865. These clocks had movements that ran 8, 15 or 30 days. Without testing, we believe this one to be 8 days, but possibly longer duration. This is a rare calendar clock.
CONDITION:
Refinished mahogany and mahogany veneered case is in nice condition. Original painted dial has some surface roughness in spots with minor loss and now has a clear coat on it to stabilize the paint. Hands appear to be original with the minute hand a little short. Two labels on the back.
