I have had this clock for awhile and just finished fixing her. Can any of you help with dating it for me. I have looked in my limited collection of books and cant find one thats close.
Thanks for any help

Bruce, Tran Duy Ly shows that clock and movement as simply "Column" dated 1863. Really nice looking clock! Middle of the Civil War! Mike

The movement is referred to as a "LYRE' movement due to it's shape.Norm

Nice looking clock. Case looks like its in great condition. Its nice that its an 8 day also.
This # 42 is as near as I could come to your movement. Yours has winding stops where the other doesn't but its similar and you didn't have the pendulum on yet.
