Catalog Description:
Seth Thomas "Tudor No. 1", ca 1863, or commonly known as a "tombstone" clock. 15" rosewood veneer case, veneer very good on the base which is unusual, and only a couple of small chips off the door on top. The bare spots have been stained to match the veneer, so it is hard to see that any is missing.
