Antique JEROME New Haven, Conn. Steeple Shelf Clock - Was Running

For your consideration is an Antique Jerome 8-day "beehive" or "steeple" shelf clock. It features the original label inside, New Haven, Conn. USA. Also, included is the key and pendulum. 

Note that there is some veneer loss and what looks like worm holes at the base on one side, but, I'm not sure. The dial is metal.

Because this is sold as is, any type of repair, or cleaning or whatever else this clock my need is up to the buyer, so, bid accordingly.

NOTE: I was able to wind it up, and it kept very good time, but, as amateur's usually do, I think I over-wound it and now I can't wind it anymore - the key turns - like something was stripped - may need a new mainspring? Anyway, it was running very well and keeping time.

The clock is about 14 3/4" tall, 7 1/4" wide and 3 1/2" deep. It weighs over 3 lbs.

Features glass door with hand-painted bottom 1/2 with fruit, very pretty. This was in my parents home for decades and had been well cared for.

I'm a  member of Internet Horology Club 185, it's a great club with a fairly substantial following. You can visit their website at ihc185.org or ihc185.com. Try them out if you are looking for a great, friendly and informative club and it's only $12.00/year for membership fees.

NOTE: Any red marks or red shadows are NOT on the Dial, but are part of the infrared auto-focus system of my cameras and can be safely ignored.

Please refer to pictures for more information. This is sold "as is".  All of my pocket watches, wristwatches, clocks and parts were all collected by my dad, who was a long-time member of the NAWCC (National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors) and one of his long-time hobbies was to fix antique watches, pocket watches and clocks. All of the specs listed were catalogued by my dad. Please refer to the pictures for more information.  I'll continue to list more clocks and TONS of pocket watch, wrist watch and clock parts.
