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

Bill CarlsonNice 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.
