Seth Thomas Marble series with visible escapement
Not new since I picked this one up at the NW Regional in Clackamas Oregon in May, but new to the house, since I brought it home with me a week ago after our road trip to baby sit the grands in Portland. It has resided in a large plastic bin in the "kid's" basement. I cannot find this exact model in the Seth books but there are others that are similar. The base measures 15 1/2". The visible escapements are rather hard to find in Seth Thomas. The overall look is similar to the much more common Ansonias. Case is in excellent condition as is the dial.
