    I inherited this from my Dad. It belonged to his Dad. I have looked at several Seth Thomas clocks but have been unable to find one like this.
    It works just fine. Does anyone know anything about it? From what I have learned is that is was probably made in about 1850, but no paperwork on it or label anywhere unless I was to take the clock out and I will not do that. Can anyone help me? I don't know if it is a 7 or 8 day clock. I do not know how many times I am supposed to wind it up. If you can give me any information on this clock, please send me an email with the subject Seth Thomas Clock to carol.lamotte@hotmail.com
    Thank you

      This site shows the Seth Thomas clocks. I didn't see it in the catalog?
