Seth Thomas Tambour Clock, 8 Day T&S (Quarter Hour), Clean Running, #89 Movement Click images to enlarge Description Heritage Matters MANTLE CLOCK IN TAMBOUR STYLE MAHOGANY CASE SETH THOMAS 8 DAY T&S, QUARTER HOUR BIM-BAM STRIKE, RUNNING WELL CIRCA 1920s-30s This is a Seth Thomas tambour style mantle clock in mahogany. The label identifying the model is missing. I looked through pages of Seth Thomas tambour clocks on line, and found only ONE with a Greek key design at the base--AND IT WAS NOT IDENTIFIES AS TO MODEL! The movement is Seth Thomas's workhorse #89, striking the hour and quarter hour. It measures approximately 20 X 10X 6 inches. When I got it, the movement was clean but dry, so I lubricated it and it immediately began working and striking. The silvered dial is in very good condition--I am sure the silvering is quite thin, and you frequently see them with much more wear than this one. It retains its original "ST" hands. It has been refinished, though they apparently forgot to refinish the rear door! The pendulum is original to this clock as far as I know. The movement is original to the case. The movement has been lightly oiled and is running nicely at this time. However, I sell all electrical and mechanical devices in "as-is" condition as they can easily get out of adjustment or even broken in transit. Even then, however, you still have a 30 day inspection period during which the item can be returned or any reason--however it must be returned in the same condition in which I shipped it, meaning if there is damage, an insurance claim must be made. Should there be a problem with your purchase, please contact me directly through the eBay mail system. I can and will do the same things directly that I would through eBay, and probably more quickly. NO RESERVE! MY PLEDGE TO YOU: no surprises! I will provide high-resolution scans; I will fully describe each item, obverse and reverse, positives and negatives, possibilities, likelihoods, what I suspect, and which is which; and I will provide as much historical context as I can. Now, I believe that the only people who never make mistakes are those who never say or do anything, so consequently, there will be times I am wrong. There, you are covered by my guarantee. MY GUARANTEE TO YOU: I guarantee each item to be genuine as described. After you receive your purchase, you will have a 30 day inspection period; and if you are dissatisfied for any reason, simply return the item (in its original condition) for an immediate refund of your purchase price. Furthermore, if in the inspection period, you decide to send the item for expertizing, I will extend the period until its return from the expert of your choice. If it returns with an opinion of not genuine, or of being significantly different from how I describe it, I will also reimburse you for the expertizing fee. And the ONLY exception to my guarantee is that I am not responsible for mishandling by the mail system, and any damages incurred therein. That is what insurance is for, and it is automatic on this item. Get images that make Supersized seem small.Showcase your items with Auctiva's Listing Templates! THE simple solution for eBay sellers.
