This impressive antique tall case clock is among the most refined examples from the South shore area of Massachusetts.

The delicate fret, reeded chimneys and columns frame a finely painted moon phase dial in amazing original condition, signed "John Bailey / HANOVER".

The brass movement is of eight day duration and is in fine running condition.
