This is a very desireable clock. They didn't make very many at all. This one, regardless of the age patina, appears to be in great condition. I would estimate it to bring $600-1000 at auction, a very nice piece any clock lover would appreciate in their collection. If you plan to use it, I would advise visiting a clock/watch repairman and seek their advice as to how often to have it serviced to keep in great condition for another 65 years.
