He also served as the treasurer and senior warden of the Third Masonic District, Brooklyn. The enameling on the cuvette confirms his Masonic connections. The watch is of very high quality, and unusual in that the only name found on it is that of Mr. Hopper. The watch movement is similar in design to watches manufactured by Tiffany & Co. during the late 19th century, and was probably ordered by Mr. Hopper through one of the prominent New York jewelers importing high quality Swiss work for sale in the United States. An exceptional watch with a very interesting history.

CONDITION: Movement dirty and with gummy oil, runs but should be serviced in order to prevent premature wear, steel parts with strong blue, movement decoration crisp, hands appear to be original, hour hand repaired, dial with minor discoloration and verdigris at 1:00, scattered spotting, and minor scratches, significant loss to infill in numerals, tub and interior hardware with lacquer loss and tarnish, box dirty and with old finish, minor scratches, brass corners on back of top with minor separation from box due to shrinkage, hardware with lacquer loss and tarnish, box front retains a 19th century paper label with the chronometer number, 7" x 7" x 7". This clock has avoided contact with heavy handed restorers. The plate scraping is bright and crisp, the blued steel parts have very good color, and with the exception of the dirt and gummy oil appears to be very good overall. The box and the hardware are also untouched, and have the evidence of age that one would expect on a mid 19th century object. Additional evidence of the condition is found in the 19th century paper label with the number 1842 on the box front. Any serious attempt to clean or refinish the case would have resulted in the loss of this label. If you have been looking for a nice American chronometer that has not been abused, then this may be the one for you.

Scientific electronic instruments- 3 (Three): F.L. Moseley Co. "Autograf" Model 35 X-Y Recorder; Hewlett Packard, Moseley Division, Model 35A X-Y Recorder with accessories with ink; Hitachi Denshi, Ltd. Oscilloscope Model V-212/211, later 20th century
CONDITION: we noted the following online information for the X-Y machines: "In 1951, the F.L. Moseley Co. was formed in a California garage to manufacture the first commercially available models of the x-y recorder, called the Autograf line. For scientists and engineers everywhere, the Moseley x-y recorder meant that a means for automatically recording the relationship between two variables was finally available. Friction to heat, vibration to velocity, current to voltage—whatever the variables, the Autograf made it possible to trace them on chart paper automatically, rather than tracking them by hand. In 1958, HP acquired the Pasadena, California-based F.L. Moseley, complementing its highly diversified line of measuring and signal-generating instruments. The association made it possible to further develop and improve the graphic recording instruments, which by then had become a standard in the industry, and to correlate uses and applications with many HP products." The oscilloscope includes two leads and the operation manual. We have not tested these instruments; sold as is but appear complete and undamaged. Lot heavy and fragile for shipping. Our estimate is just our best guess for these vintage instruments.

Note that despite the needed restorations, this is a rare and interesting American clock, well worthy of your attention. Would easily bring ten times our estimate when properly restored. Ht 106"

A mini grand daughter tall case with rocking ship and chiming Westminster chimes on the quarters, unsigned but surely from the workshop of Elmer Stennes of Weymouth, Mass, c1965
CONDITION: the burled elm veneer has some losses at knots, filled in. The clock lived its life in the presence of a smoker and dial has gone from cream color to light brown. Movement is signed SMITHS, England, exactly as signed Stennes items from this period. Someone may have ordered it from Elmer as a present and not wanted his name on the dial. Usually these bring around 2000 to 2500, but we assigned a modest estimate owing to the lack of signature. Needs cleaning and adjusting. Ht 57"

English, London, 4-tune, musical bracket clock, Georgian era, with unusual serpentine dial and door by Will'm Challenner, triple fusee, playing on 11 bells with 14 hammers, retains original crown wheel/verge escapement, and with central calendar hand, c1760
CONDITION: this clock was formerly in the collection of the late Robert S. Rosen of Los Angeles. Around 40 years ago, the dial rings were sent for refinishing and got lost in the post and so new ones were ordered with a sketch of the information. Anyone who has ordered from Goodacre Engraving knows that whatever you write down, including style is what you will receive back, net result is that careful spelling and lettering of the tunes came back exactly as written on the paper, rather than in the style of the period. Similarly, a sketch of the chapter ring with calendar had the dates down with irregular spacing, and so it was made. If you can get past the need for better dial rings, what remains is quite wonderful, the clock playing 4 recognizable tunes at intervals and on request, the back plate very nicely engraved with foliate pattern, and the case with original caryatids and other trimmings, and the escapement has never been modified from the original. Tunes include GOD SAVE THE KING, RULE BRITANNIA, EASTER HYMN, & TARAS HALLS; Ht 27"

Makers", dial arch with gilt putti flanking silvered Strike/ Silent indicator, pierced steel hands, very substantial brass movement with Brocot escapement, back plate marked "Tiffany & Co. Makers Patented Nov. 7th 1882" and with the number 716, full Westminster chimes and hour striking on 5 gongs, original pendulum and key, c1890
CONDITION: Case with minor splits and a separation at back of top, top with veneer lifting at back right, mahogany faded, brass hardware with some tarnish and loss of lacquer, front door with dark tarnish, door glass very good, rear door screen loose at lower right, fabric replaced, door locks with keys but not working, dial resilvered, ornaments cleaned and lacquered, engraved numerals painted, should be filled with black shellac, hands good, movement ticks and strikes, but the striking will need a fair amount of work, rack springs broken and soldered, one gong hammer with solder repair, movement would benefit from service, Ht 19 3/4". While Tiffany often used imported movements in their clocks, this clock was made in the Tiffany Clock Shop in New York, under the supervision of Joseph Lindauer, who was in charge of operations in their clock manufacturing shop. The patent referenced on the back plate was held by Lindauer for a simplified striking mechanism, which was used in these clocks. The striking mechanism has a design flaw which does not re synchronize the Westminster chimes after the hour strikes, so the chimes often play the incorrect sequence at the various quarters. That said, this is a rare and impressive (and extremely heavy) clock by a desirable maker, and well worth restoring

English mahogany barrel form 8 day, fusee spring brass movement wall clock or timepiece, c1815 The dial is signed "Smart", who might possibly be Benjamin Smart a London clockmaker who worked from 1797-1818 located at 35 Firth Street.

There are three holes in the case at the six o'clock position that would suggest this timepiece was mounted onto a stand with three pins.
CONDITION: Mahogany veneered case in nice condition with some splits and a raised area caused by differences in case construction. Original painted dial has some paint loss in the center area and in places on the outer edge. Hands are original. The small hand at 12 o'clock is for regulating the pendulum.

German, Lenzkirch, immense and ornate "Freischwinger" or free-swinger with pendulum open in bottom section, serial #824349, c1885
CONDITION: this clock is a Lenzkirch collectors dream. Was imported to the US in 1968 and has been in storage since. Both case and movement are dirty. Note movement mounting sets up on a block to bring dial flush with the door. Sometimes this indicates a marriage, but in this case it was done because of the extra deep case; there is no evidence of tampering. Not immediately evident in the movement are the dozens of decorative bronze castings, since they have all turned dark brown. In spite of having 3 major references on Lenzkirch, we could not find this exact case in a book (send us an email if you know the model) Charts of serial numbers vary quite a bit, but we can safely say that this is 4th quarter of 1800s. Thumbscrews for movement mount are lacking. Some nicks and scrapes to case commensurate with its age. With the many turnings and finial tips in bronze, this is a very heavy clock. We recommend blanket wrap delivery. Ht 52"

French picture clock, oil on canvas, 8 day time and strike movement by Chaumont, Paris, with 4-tune music box, c1880
CONDITION: this is a better-than-average example, with the clock face showing in the scene's church steeple. The unsigned painting portrays a riverside village with a fisherman, etc., and has been nicely repaired long ago with a few patches on the reverse side. The signed thread-suspension movement strikes on a gong and also actuates the very nice sounding large music box mounted above which has selector switches accessed through a brass plate on the side of the case. One sticker lists the four tunes; the smaller round one advertises a clockmaker in Brugge. We were able to produce a slow melody, but service will be needed on both movements, and their linkages. The frame has its gilding mostly intact, and measures 22" x 27"

Swiss, with French spring wound pendulum movement, castle style automaton, with monkey appearing as a conductor, moving his arm to indicate the striking of the gong; c1875
CONDITION: this clock was most likely carved in the Interlaken area, a region well known for carved cases, both figural and architectural. The exterior of the case is incised to simulate brick, the top cut to simulate shingles and the dial flanked by Corinthian columns with gilt metal trimmings. The steeple does separate from the main case for service of the "monkey linkage". There are some missing bits of brass trim and some nicks and scrapes to the case; front panel with dry split, all commensurate with its' age. The well made French time and strike movement goes for 8+ days; although it ticks and tries to strike, it would benefit from service. The gilt dial with cartouche numerals is exceptional and very clean. The linkage to the monkey's arm, with counterweight, needs adjusting. Overall an interesting clock for the novelty collector.

Austrian Gebruder Resch, 3-weight grand sonnerie wall clock, extra large, with profuse carvings and extra moldings, serial #100000--66384, dial with retailers name = Johann Greiner, Graz, c1880
CONDITION: overall excellent condition. all numbers match on mounting bracket movement and pendulum. Note that this case is extra deep, and a one inch block is used to space the movement out from the back board, however there is no bracket of later tampering. Pattern on weights, pendulum and dial is etched in, not engraved, and the scrolling pattern on pendulum and weights does not quite match the leafy pattern on the dial center. The case features a large dentil treatment above dial, and a well pendulum female bust at top. Dial is flanked by two full round and reeded columns, and surrounded by a deeply carved bezel, the lower pendulum of this double door design with well detailed pilasters. Very heavy door is held in place by pendulum robust lock and original key. This one of a kind case was likely commissioned to match a set of dining room furniture. This clock weights approx 65 pounds and we suggest a stronger wall wall hanger. Ht 64"

Japanese, double foliot lantern clock, large, "Nicho Tenpu Yagura-dokei", 30 hour, steel framed movement with tooled brass covers, now on a purpose made wall bracket and with later weights
CONDITION: although the wall bracket and weights are modern, the clock itself is otherwise c1790 and in very good original condition. Small dent in dial. Larger lanterns like this [16" ht] often occur on a floor base, which may be a simple trapezoid paneled affair, or open with delicate curved legs. For centuries, the japanese divided the day into 6 daylight hours and 6 night time hours, and their clocks designed to vary the length of each hour to correspond with the daylight offered by the sun. The work day and study day were thus longer in the summer and shorter in the winter. Levers within the movement rise to change from the small foliot to the large foliot, and every few days the little weights on the foliot are adjusted manually outward or inward to change the length of the hours. Small alarm weight and rope are lacking. From the collection of the late Rose Brandt.

The polished metal dial is pristine, and company labels and plates remain inside at the top and bottom. There also is a top-mounted bell.
