Catalog Description: The ‘RIO’ by Seth Thomas-8-day wall clock with calendar. Here it is folks-the “last” of the Seth Thomas “RIO’s”!!! Out of the collection that has made available five Seth Thomas “RIO” wall clocks, this is the final one that we will be able to offer from that source. The others all sold almost as soon as they were put onto our web site. This nice example has an original painted dial and a professionally cleaned and good running brass eight-day movement with a calendar mechanism. The movement strikes the hours on a coil gong. The case has been given an attractive ebony laquered finish. The painted dial is clean and attractive. I’ll keep looking for “RIOs” because they always appeal to our customers. But, I never found one before in our many years in the antique clock business and may not come upon another for years to come. Priced appropriately for for a quick sale to some lucky buyer. Height: 26 in. (66.04 cm) Depth: 4 in. (10.16 cm) Width: 17 in. (43.18 cm) Weight: 10

Catalog Description: C.1884, Seth Thomas, “Richmond” rosewood mantle clock from the city series, restored. The case has colorful veneer, and has been stripped and could use more finish. The original tablet, dial and label are great (minor flaking along edge of dial is not apparent with door closed). Pendulum works fine, but is from another model. 30 hour time and strike movement is mechanically sound, but would benefit from oiling. Height 18.5 inches

Catalog Description: Seth Thomas City Series clock, the “Reno”, ca 1887, and so stamped on the case back at the factory. This is another of their earlier City Series models, when design and quality were very important. In a short time the oak kitchen clocks would dominate the shelf clock market. This excellent walnut case is 19.5 inches high, good label inside, good glass, outstanding nickel bob, Cathedral gong, and a brass bell for the alarm. 8 day movement is running, but like all of this collection should be oiled. The “only” negative thing about this clock is the new paper dial. Spend a few dollars and get it painted. Ly-Seth Thomas #224..
