Catalog Description: Seth Thomas “Regulator No. 2”, Ca 1920. Mahogany veneer case is 36.5 inches high, which in itself dates the clock after 1913. There is no veneer on the bezel, it was stained to match the rest of the case. It is a little rough where the veneer was scraped off. The 8-day movement is not signed, has not been out of the case that I can tell. I would service and change the weight cord as soon as possible. It has been in storage for several years. The original zinc dial is very good for its age, slightly dirty and has a little flake or two. The original screws, in the original holes, lead me to believe the clock has not been played with. All the brass; weight, bob, beat scale, pulley, and dial ring are all in good condition. For some reason the crutch has been extended, perhaps to fit a new stick. The clock is running despite these deficiencies. Most of the black label remains in the base. The ride from Oregon in a U-Haul trailer left some skinned places, but they should clean up fine. Ly-Seth Thomas, 2004 Edition, pages 276-277.

Catalog Description: B&O Railroad clock. Stamped on the door “B&O 165”. Case is Seth Thomas Clock Co. “Regulator No.3”., ca 1886. The old oak case is generally very good. A little veneer patched and some ragged spots, all on the inner part of the round bezel nearest the glass. 42 inch case has original parts, finials, nickel bob and wood stick, brass weight and pulley, and door lock. The case has been refinished but is all original and very nice otherwise. I had some doubts about the backboard being original because it was too nice to be 100 years old, but everything else is so extra nice, down to the old finials, that I have concluded that it probably hung high on a wall in a railroad station and was not moved around like most old wall clocks.The movement is 8 day, time only, weight driven, running. Movement is signed by Seth Thomas and marked “3”. It has polished steel cut pinions, Graham dead beat escapement, and maintaining power. This movement is identical to the one pictured on page 113 of Ly-Seth Thomas. There is original paint on the 14 inch zinc dial, only minor flaking. Sure isn’t due for a repaint.

Catalog Description: Seth Thomas “Regulator No. 6″, C. 1970’s. This is #480 of 4000 reproductions made by Seth Thomas in the 1970’s. It is the same scale 48-49” high, same finials, dial, pendulum ball, beat scale, door locks, movement, etc. Double side locks, label on the base signifying it was made by Seth Thomas and showing it is #480 of 4000. The No. 2 style movement is marked, “S T 61 A414-000 7801”. I am sure this clock has not been on the wall since it was made, more than likely in a box under the bed. It looks like it was made yesterday. I have had it in my den a few months (left the originals in the basement) and I would recommend it be oiled before extended use. I doubt it has been oiled since it was made. Ly-Seth Thomas #391 pictures the C. 1884 model.

Catalog Description: C.1905, Seth Thomas, Thomaston, Conn, “Regulator No. 8 ” Short, in excellent condition, with the oak case attractively refinished to a golden caramel color. The dial, hands, weight, damascene pendulum, pulley and all associated hardware are original. This clock uses the No. 62 movement with dead beat escapement and cut pinions, along with the large pendulum bob (stick only may be an old replacement; hardware is proper). Personally, this case (3″ shorter than the long version) looks perfect with the large bob swinging about 3″ off the bottom. The dial has a couple of minor flakes and some wear to the numerals from setting the hands. Model numbers 7 and 8 have become very popular in the last few years. (See lot 398); ht 52″

Catalog Description: C.1880, Seth Thomas Clock Co., “Round Band”, 8-day time/strike/alarm shelf clock. The refinished rosewood veneered case is in excellent condition with just a small veneer chip on the back edge, bottom. The original dial has been repainted. The gong for the strike is missing, but the brass grommet that holds in place is still there, which would make it an easy repair. The bell for the alarm is still there (they actually have bent the hammer so it strikes and alarms on the same bell). The label is very clean. The original tablet of a dog is in outstanding condition. Height 17 inches

Catalog Description: Seth Thomas mantle clock, “Sharp Gothic”, ca 1902. Walnut veneered case is 19.5″ high and in “almost” perfect condition. The veneer, particularly on the front has a burl look, the grain going ever which way. Note that one finial tip has taken a hike, and there is one veneer nick on the base, right rear. Wonderful waterfowl glass has been rebacked with black paint, looks good, and should hold the pretty scene. The old original dial has had a heap of paint touchup, all outside of the time ring. More flaking each time the clock is handled and someday it will have to be repainted. One day movement strikes hours on a coil gong, running real well. We almost never see Seth Thomas steeple clocks, very few were made. Ly-Seth Thomas No. 1081.
