I have completly overhauled the brass movement in this clock. I keep my prices reasonable, not charging the high costs of preventing starvation based on Bidens inflation

Eli Terry jr. Was the son of the famous Clockmaker from New England. One of the great clockmaking centers of New England was Terryville Ct.

Eli jr started making clocks using his fathers cases. Eli made Woodworks clocks. Eli jr. started making brass movements. He eventually went into partnership with Andrew's and formed Terry &; Andrew's brass works, and made brass works movements, selling them to many clockmakers.

In 1849 they formed a relationship with a man named Jacob Anson, and by 1850 were the founders of Ansonia Clock Co. In 1855 the factory located in then renamed Ansonia Ct burned to the ground. Anson and Andrews moved to The Bronx in NYC and opened Ansonia Clock Co. Witn Jacob Anson.

I am helping a family settle an estate and am selling this clock for them. It is a beautiful clock. It runs properly and keeps time. I have been an houroligist (clockmaker) since 1964. This clock was fully inspected by a professional clockmaker

It does have a brass spring movement, but it appears to having been built in an Eli Terry case used for weight driven woodworks movement by the Terry clock company.

Since it is working and keeping time and striking, I have not taken it apart. (Never try to fix something not broken)

American cash only in 50 and 20 dollar Bill's, no exceptions.!!! Sorry but there have fake 100 dollar bills.

I posted on the Church Computer and do not get notifications when I get an email. Please call or text me at 703 then 447 and 7261.

I have priced it for a quick sale and can take a fair and reasonable cash price offer.

I report all scammers to the Virginia State Police
