eBay Up for auction is a Seth Thomas Sonora Chime No. 2000 ca. 1915 Running 8 Bell Project.The clock measures 16 X 12 X 9.The 8 day time and strike movement is stamped 89X and the rear chime movement is stamped 104E.The clock seems to run well, all the springs wind and hold tension.It only strikes when manually engaged by lifting the count arm or raising a lever.I took the chime unit out and it sluggishly strikes.the first hammer doesn’t want to work.This model plays both Westminster and Whittington Chimes.It’s missing the right side column and a column holder and a front piece of wood and an indicator hand that I know of possibly more?This model doesn’t come around often and is seldom seen. I’ve found 2 auction records for this model and the last one sold in 2022 @ Schmitt & Horans for $3400 Hopefully someone will want to restore this clock so I won’t have to part it out.Brand new this clock sold for $870.00, probably a small fortune in 1915.Examine the pictures, they are a large part of the description Winning bidder to pay shipping, insurance with signature confirmation.
