    This was consigned without the backboard, so this would need to be reinstated. The lower door is absent to the case, as is the back molding where the door would have been. Case has been refinished a long time ago, now with overall scuffs and scratches as to be expected with age. Some shrinkage separations to the original joins on the sectional dial surround as to be expected with age. The dial with original finish. Overall crazing and rubbing to the roman numerals, original hands. On the dial below the word Melbourne, the original clock number appears to be erased leaving old shadow mark. Later replacement pendulum with wood rod, cast bob, and later cast weight most likely done in the last fifty years. A rare example in a solid Huon pine case. Would respond well to sympathetic restoration. The original movement will need a full overhaul and appears not to have been running for possibly several decades. Appears to be present and correct, and of good substantial quality.
