Description: Vintage Herschede Mantel Clock - Mahogany Case Two Tone Finish No 5052 1925-1928 Serial number 64370 - My search results indicate that this serial number was manufactured between the years of 1925 and 1928. Everything about this HERSCHEDE is high quality. It is in proper working order and keeps time accurately. The chime melodies are clear with the correct timing. There is a plaque attached to the back of the clock that indicates they had received a Grand Prize in 1915 at the Panama Pacific Exposition. This plaque appears on all Herschede clocks after 1915. It does not mean that the clock that it is attached to is the actual Grand Prize winner, it is just a form of advertising advising that they won the Grand Prize for their clocks. One last thing to be aware of. We had taken the clock in for cleaning and maintenance a few years ago. The individual placed a tape label on the inside of the back door and wrote our last name in marker. When the label was removed we realized the marker had bled through; so our name is now on the inside of the back door. I did not try removing it because I did not want to affect to finish. I just wanted you to be aware of it. The following came from a Herschede brochure about the clock: (image of clock in brochure can be seen in the photos of this listing) No. 5052 - Two-Tone FinishHeight, 8 ⅝ inchesLength, 20 inchesDial, 5 inches Model 55 Pendulum Movement, hand wound. Eight day three-quarter DING-DONG strike. On “Symphony” Chimetone rods. Hour strikes on a single Chimetone rod. Finest Mahogany Cases. The movement is of very rugged construction. We use heavy rectangular plates 3 ¾ inches x 4 ⅞ inches. The shafts are of high-grade steel and all the pinions are solid cut, insuring a greater degree of accuracy and longer life than the lantern pinions generally used in clocks at this price. Gears, plates, etc., are made of hard-rolled clock brass. Brass bezel, richly gilded; spun hand-silvered finish dial.
