I recently purchased this Pennwood "Clipper" ship on eBay. I knew of their existence from a picture that was posted on another website (see 4th picture). This Clipper is in better shape than the first one I saw, the rigging is intact, the wooden case has a few bumps and a bruise or two, and the movement is in pristine shape and runs quietly. The time is set via a door on the back panel (See 2nd picture) The numbers on the drums on the inside are clear and without fading (3rd picture). The original cord has been replaced and it has a little etching on the sails. The clock measures 18" long, 16" in height and is appx 4 1/2" width. She is certainly Yaw!
I heard Time Flys!!! Yours Sails!!! Nice clock!!
