I don’t know too much about clocks, but I can stop admiring the beauty of the design and the quality of the materials with which these antique clocks are made.

Because you ar new, here is some useful information. You can send up to 4 pictures at one time. So if you wanted to do front and back of two clocks that would work. Remember the 1st picture you send will be the picture everyone sees, so you might want to send the face of the clock first. Often i arrange the pics I want then edit if necessary. Not a criticism just a thought...
You are right!!...I make a mistake. I will try to follow your advice. Thanks you very much!
These old Stanfords are some of my favorite clocks. Very hard to come by as company was in business for so short a time - only 18 mos. - and production low. Your looks to be in great shape! Does it run?
Dear Chadakoin, thanks you very much for your comment. Actually, this clock is one of my favorite clocks too!! It runs very nice and it is very accurate. I love the barbershop-like rotating dial in the center of the dial...is beautiful to watch. I would say that it is in mind condition, as you see from the picture. Last, but not least, let me tell you that you have the most wonderful collection of art deco clocks that I have seen.
