Bradley and Hubbard ADMIRAL Blinking Eye Clock

Historical transaction records of Bradley and Hubbard ADMIRAL Blinking Eye Clock

1. Description:

C.1860, Bradley and Hubbard “ADMIRAL” Blinking Eye clock. This is above average for what we find today, except both left corners of iron base have gotten chipped off, and some one has painted over the face. The paint is otherwise 90 percent original (with crazing and some flaking). The movement, dial, bezel and eyes are original and the clock is working (but would benefit from service). Note the Admiral is less often seen than the Continental; if not for the base and face, this would be a $3000 clock; height 16″ Reserve $1100.
