    My brother bought this in Omaha eight years ago at an estate sale and eventually gave it to me as a clock restoration or rebuild project.  I ended up using it but never restored the case damage at the top.  I had planned to keep the inner works and build a new case in a modern style but never got ROUNDTOIT.  Time for a new owner; keeps perfect time.  29" tall and 14" wide at the base.

    This case for this model has what I consider a design flaw.  The glass in the door is heavy.  If the clock is on a mantel and you open the door it falls over, which is what I think happened to an earlier owner.  You can see the damage to the scroll work at the top in the photo.  I used it in my office resting on a narrow ledge and screwed the case to the wall.

    I think this will appeal to someone who wants to build a new case and wants to use the eight day windup clock innards.  However, you might like this style and want to try to restore it.

    Howard Miller is a solid brand name (see howardmiller.com).

    I'm pretty sure the clock works are worth a pretty penny, so I priced it to move.  FCFS.  Best to text me at 503-312-7745; email works fine @ lpwade@gmail.com.

    I live north of Beaverton near 143rd and NW Thompson, north of Hwy 26 near Bethany/Cedar Mill.
