During this time, a keen sense of nationalism arose, and government leaders such as Thomas Jefferson looked to the classical ages of Greece and Rome for inspiration in forging an identity for the new American Republic.As seen on this Banjo Clock there is a Hand Painted Reverse Glass Scene of a Greek Chariot and a Eagle with Shield with 20 Stars.

Eli Terry & Sons Wooden Works Transitional Clock 30 Hour T&S Painted Eagle Splat
This is an antique "transitional" wood works clock made by Eli Terry & Sons. It has a standard 30 hour movement, and as far as I can tell, is ALL ORIGINAL. Eli Terry & Sons Wooden Works Transitional Clock 30 Hour T&S Painted Eagle Splat Eli Terry & Sons Wooden Works Transitional Clock 30 Hour T&S Painted Eagle Splat Click images to enlarge Description Heritage Matters WEIGHT DRIVEN TRANSITIONAL CLOCK ELI TERRY & SONS 30 HOUR T&S (ON THE HOUR ONLY) CIRCA 1823 - 1832 This is an antique "Transitional" wood works clock made by Eli Terry & Sons, with an excellent label intact. It has a 30 hour movement, striking on the hour only. The lower glass is a replacement, but appears to be correctly reverse painted, and not screen-printed. It retains it original "tin can" pulley covers--the few times they appear on eBay, they go for a couple of hundred dollars themselves. Rather than the usual splat featuring a cornucopia, this one has an eagle! The paint on that splat, as well as on the columns, appears to be original. The movement is an original Terry-type. The weights, hands, and pendulum bob are all original. It measures approximately 28 X 17 X 5 inches. Old Eli began a partnership with his sons Eli Jr. and Henry about 1823. Junior left the firm in 1828 and Henry in 1832, which ended the company. "Transitional clocks" such as this overlap in production with the Pillar and Scroll clocks designed and first produced by Eli Terry (and also made by several others) and the "Brass Looking Glass Clock," or as it is generally called today, the half-column and splat clock (the movement is often called a "groaner") designed by Jerome about 1828. Most say this type of clock represents a transition from the pillar and scroll style to the column and splat clocks, but I think it is more accurate to think of them of a transition between movement construction. These "Transitional" clocks could use the same movements produced for pillar and scroll clocks, as well as a cabinet with approximately the same dimensions as the P&S. Those made for Jerome's "groaner" movements required a longer case and some degree of re-tooling, at least for the escapement. The transitional clocks also have the same sort of reverse paintings as do the pillar and scroll clocks, but with a different top splat and claw feet, like those often used in Empire style furniture. You know, Eli Whitney gets the credit for mass production and interchangeable parts, receiving a government contract for 10,000 muskets in 1797. However, for the first year, he produced not a single musket. In 1801, he demonstrated the ease of assembling muskets from interchangeable parts for a government committee which included out-going President John Adams and incoming President Thomas Jefferson. However, it turned out the demonstration was a set-up, using predetermined parts. I have even read that Whitney never managed to perfect the technique, and actually subcontracted the muskets out to more traditional arms makers. He did, however, come up with the idea for it, an idea which Eli Terry applied to his wooden works clocks, and put a clock within the financial reach of people who could otherwise have never afforded one! The splat has a crack in it, and it looks like two of its original glue blocks were lost, and a single one at the center was added. There are various small pieces of veneer which have been replaced, and I see at least one area where the veneer has cracked (see photos). On the dial, there is a missing wood chip just to the right of the winding arbor. The movement of this clock was completely disassembled, cleaned, and restrung. There are old repairs to some of the teeth. It is currently working HOWEVER (1) I have read that when produced, the wooden movements were estimated to have a "life expectancy" of about 20 years. We are well beyond that now, by about 180 years, and it is amazing that so many of them are still running! However, you might say they are living on borrowed time, so I cannot guarantee a wood works clocks, especially after it goes through the post office or any other shipper. And (2) I sell all mechanical and electrical devices in AS-IS condition anyway, because parts can become brittle so that any disturbance affects it. Please note: the weights will be shipped separately from the clock, at no additional expense to the buyer. Even so, I find this an AMAZING and beautiful clock!
