Seth Thomas Office Calendar No. 10, c.1896
in Walnut
|
|
|
Ship From So. CA
|
|
 (orig catalogue drawing)
|
|
There were two different versions of the Seth Thomas Office Calendar No. 10, both made in the basic Regulator No. 6 case that was also used for their double-time clock. This beautiful clock is the later of the two; the earlier version had fretwork between the dials and the pendulum was raised and located behind that fretwork. Serious Seth Thomas collectors frequently seek to have both models hanging side-by-side.
Physical: The walnut case, which had the original finish and is in excellent physical condition, measures 16"w x 49"h x 6"d. The 10" diameter dials have the original paint and are in excellent, age-appropriate condition; the calendar rollers are also original. The damascened pendulum bob is original and in excellent condition as well.
Mechanical: The clock and perpetual calendar mechanisms are original to the clock. Both were recently professionally overhauled and in excellent running order.
Comments: This is a fabulous clock that will end up in the home of a serious Seth Thomas collector. Will that be yours? Father's Day is coming you know...

Ithaca “ 3 1/2 ” Parlor Calendar in Walnut |
|
|
|
|
This model from the Ithaca Calendar Clock Company shows up only occasionally. It's been a couple of years since we had the last one.
Background:
According to Miller, “Between 1874 and 1880, Ithaca Calendar Clock Co. changed some of their line of models. The 3 ½ Parlor also underwent some definite changes in trim; the pendulum length was decreased the backboard changed from two pieces to one piece; lettering on the calendar dial changed from gold to silver; and the numbers on the calendar dial were moved from in front of the dial to behind the dial. A third model was also made about 1900 as an economy move. The previously full columns were changed to half columns mounted on 45-degree blocks.”
Physical: The walnut case in in very good condition and has the original finish. It measures 10.5"w x 20.5"h x 5.5"d and has a backboard that was replaced at some point in the past. It has a 1958 repair date so we would assume the back was replaced at or before that time. The upper (clock) dial has a 4.5" chapter ring inside a 5" repainted bezel. The lower (calendar) dial has a 6.875" chapter ring inside an 8.25" diameter bezel. The upper dial is the original paper with silver numerals. The lower dial is reverse stenciled on glass. Note, too, the original crystal pendulum.
Mechanical: The clock movement and, like the calendar movement, is in excellent running order. They were professionally serviced in 2012.
Comments: Perhaps you're like us: you've looked at this model for a long time and never made the jump. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps... you should call and make it your own!

Beautiful Seth Thomas Office Calendar No 13
in Cherry
|
|
|
Ship From So. CA
|
|
In our's opinion, the most beautiful non-burled cases Seth Thomas made were those in cherry. We sold a cherry No .9 that hung in our hallway and became a personal favorite during its tenure here. We had a beautiful new kitchen built from scratch several years ago and used this same natural cherry wood. That kitchen gets great oohs and ahhs when people see if for the first time. Just like people will fawn over your new Office Calendar 13 in cherry.
Physical: The solid cherry case, which measures 18"w x 49"h x 7"d retains the original finish. It has been cleaned up and polished and has a lovely luster to it. The clock dial was touched up, and the calendar dial repainted by the famous dial-painter, Martha Smallwood. The glass is original. Note the signature on the dial of the Jeweler who sold the clock, or, more likely, had it in his own shop:
Mechanical: The movements have been professionially overhauled and run perfectly. The clock is an eight-day movement; the calendar 31 days. The calendar roller dials are original
Comments: We've had only one other of this model available to us in the past. This model uses the same case as the very popular Seth Thomas Regulator 30. Perhaps you own a No. 30, or perhaps you own another similar-sized Seth Clock in cherry with with this would be a great hanging partner.
