In case you didn't see it within the general completed listings for Gilbert Porcelain Clocks, there is one auction result for the exact Gilbert model you show above. (identified by the Seller as Gilbert's # 42G).
Here's the summary:
Ended: Apr 05, 201209:17:54 PDT
Winning bid: US $109.07 [ 20 bids ]
Item number: 251031337540
That clock was not in working order at the time of sale but the case was reportedly in good condition which is extremely important with porcelain clocks.
I would guess-timate that you could conservatively add somewhere around $150-$200 for this example if it were in good working order and if the case and bezel are free of defects.
Your dial has some condition issues, but they don't look bad. Your clock has nice color so I am speculating that it should be worth somewhere around $300 plus or minus $50 on eBay in today's market based on recently completed auction results IF it is in good running order.
You can still currently view this completed listing for more details at:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item3a72a23a44&item=251031337540&nma=true&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&rt=nc&si=hxftX8PwnJo3TGYExMfE%252BM9S0jw%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc
The listing will eventually be unavailable...after about 90 days from end of auction.
Hope that answers your questions. If so, please check the "Mystery Solved" box on your listing.
