Original Listing Description

eBay RARE Wm. L. Gilbert LONG BRANCH Large Shelf/Parlor Clock I have just changed the shipping cost on this from my original listing. This was done due to the size of the clock and materials needed to ensure safe transportation to its final destination. Please note this is a "worst case" scenario for a complete cross country destination. For deliveries this side of the Mississippi costs will be less. Thanks for your understanding Offered here is a rare antique clock c.1901 by the William A. Gilbert Company. The model is called the Long Branch and it is an eight day clock that strikes the hours and half hours on a pleasant gong. This is an estate sale find and is in unrestored condition. It does run and strike but has years of dust accumulated and will definately benefit from a thorough cleaning.This clock was first made in 1901 and offered in Oak or Walnut. This particular one is Oak if you look beneath the grit built up over the years. I have not tried to do any cleaning on the case. Selling in “as found” condition.It measures 28” tall x 16” wide and has an 8” dial. Please see my other auctions.All items are from a non-smoking home.Sales TermsSHIPPING & HANDLING: U.S. Buyer pays FedEx shipping on this item, depending on your zone.
