  • Antique Seth Thomas “Dayton” Model Clock

    Antique Seth Thomas

    Catalog Description: Seth Thomas, “Dayton”, ca 1886, one of the 100 plus models of the series of clocks that Seth Thomas made popular. This clock came to us as a “Toledo” model which is more commonly seen. The “Dayton” is very rare, this maybe only the second one I have ever seen. A date stamp on the back of the case is “1889”. 8 day, cathedral gong strike, replaced paper dial, full black label, correct pendulum, clock is running. There is a door on the base of this model. The latch needed repair which should have been an easy fix, but some mechanical engineer installed a magnet latch. Ly-Seth ThomasNo.187.

  • Antique Seth Thomas “Dover” Model Clock

    Antique Seth Thomas

    Catalog Description: Seth Thomas “Dover”, ca 1890, one of the poplar City Series. 21 1/2inch walnut case with perfect original glass and pendulum. 8 day movement strikes half hours on a coil gong, and alarms on a brass bell, and is running. Black label in the base with an over paste label, “Winward’s Grand Invention, Musical Double Alarm Eight Day Clocks”. I would call it anything but “Musical”. When both gongs ring simultaneously it would wake up the dead. Thank goodness there is a silencing lever on top of the case. Ly-Seth Thomas No.236.
