A New Glass Tablet for My Early Seth Thomas Ogee Clock
July 22, 2009 . by BillI blogged about this clock shortly after receiving it in April. At that time, it had an incorrect picture in the door. Lee Davis painted a reproduction on old glass for me. I am extremely pleased with this clock. The case veneer needs some repair, but I can enjoy it as it is for now.
