I appreciate that so much!
I accidentally posted an incomplete inquiry and ALREADY have answers!
It’s missing the pendulum and we want to know what is the correct replacement.
Does the movement seem original to the case?
Thanks so much

Why do you have doubts about the movement / case?

Regards.

Inexperience mostly and because the movement mounting situation looked a little slapdash to me.
After finding photos of similar movements, I realized it was the same design.
I got it to chime for Auntie and she is thrilled and excited to fix it!

You will need a pendulum assembly (bob, stick, with top hook) and a pendulum leader, it goes at the top. Sometimes a list member will have a clock, like yours, and post a photo of the missing parts.

I've never seen a 'box clock' that color, it may have been 'antiqied' back in the 1970s? A good shot of the back and inside the door frame will tell the tale on that.

Thanks Willie,
You GOT it exactly right. I’m not with the clock at this point but I will be stripping the case in a few weeks.
We suspect the perpetrator was Papa
In the 1970s. To his credit he did take the initiative to remove the glass when committing the indignity. He gave a Gustav Becker Grand Sonnerie the same unfortunate treatment. My cousin is it’s current caretaker, he needs parts for it as well.

We appreciate the help!

I found an identical clock here:

Post your MAUTHE clocks here

Wow... this thread is going to take a while to get through. Here's mine... I'm hoping I can find one close to it to find out what the top should look like. It's lost to the ages, unfortunately. Hi! According to the movement type, the clock was made in 1904-1908 period. The case is of...

Near the bottom of the page so we know what pendulum to look for.

It doesn't look bad to me, I would not erase that page of it's history. But, sometimes things do look a lot better in a photo than they do in real life. Willie X

I do see your point,
it’s not bad looking
but what my Auntie says goes!

I feel the same way about minor cosmetic flaws in other family artifacts. Our people put them there in the course of their lives!

wow i cringed seeing how bent one of the chime rods is.

 

[rusty_apache]

Yes the crutch arm? was pretty mangled too.

Still hoping to learn more about what the pendulum leader for this movement is supposed to look like.

I believe this is the correct pendulum…

I found these two online….
