Catalog Description: C.1885, Seth Thomas, “Regulator No. 5”, in mahogany and in very good condition. The No.5 is one of the most difficult S-Thomas models to find. This one is formerly from the John Tanner collection in California. The carved and burl accented case has been professionally refinished to a walnut color and really looks quite nice. For details on this model, see Tran Duy Ly’s book titled Seth Thomas Clocks and Movements, (1996), pages 116-117. This design and that of Regulator No.19 (following lot), represent the best American adaptation of the popular Alt Deutsch style that had so much influence on Victorian furniture in the States. (Seth Thomas actually employed several German cabinet makers at the time). The movement is of the highest quality, with cut pinions, maintaining power and a seconds hand. The 2-piece porcelain dial is mounted to the front of the movement in exactly the same fashion as the dial of a “Vienna regulator”. The only flaw we can see is a nearly invisible hairline in the dial at 6:30. Original case lock and key intact. Sure to please any S-Thomas collector. Height 50 inches

Catalog Description: Seth Thomas City Series, another one named for a western city, “Santa Fe”, C. 1886. This particular clock was made February 1889, according to the factory stamp. The walnut case make to look like it was constructed of logs, rough lumber, cactus, and leaves of brass. Many nails of brass, more for looks than holding anything together. The case is 22.5″ high, has been refinished, I can’t imagine that job. Excellent original glass, identical to the clock referenced below; full black label inside, old Seth Thomas pendulum. New paper dial on the old pan. 8 day strike and alarm. Strikes on the cathedral gong, alarms on a bell behind the gong stand. This has always been a tough one for the collectors to find.
