DESCRIPTION:
James Cary, Brunswick, Maine, 8 day, weight driven regulated by a pendulum brass movement banjo wall timepiece.
CONDITION:
The grain painted soft wood case (probably pine or popular) with original finish has a couple wear spots at the lower left edge. The period dish dial has darkened over time. The numerals and signature are restored. The dial fits the case in that the two existing holes match the mounting holes in the case, but the dial may have come from another clock as there are cutoff mounting dial pillars on the back. However, Cary may have altered an unused pillared dial to use when making this clock. Original hands and pendulum.
