Charles O. Griminger

Col Griminger, Commemorative Air Force officer, enjoys vintage military planes and clocks. Charles’ military career found him stationed in Germany in the 1960s, where he paid 20 Deutsch Marks [$5 at the time] for a nice grandfather clock. And as many GIs discovered, clocks could be found in the trash, or local citizens would give them to you simply because you were interested. Antiques were easy to bring back home with your personal items. He eventually opened a clock shop in Virginia. But let’s start at the beginning. Charles was born in Northfield Ohio in 1934, and graduated from Bowling Green State University as a Distinguished Military Graduate, with top grades for his BS degree. He joined the U.S. Army as a 2nd Lt., and graduated from Flight School in 1959. He flew all manner of planes and helicopters, served two tours in Vietnam, staying in the service when he moved state side. Still in the Army, he attended USC and received an MS in Systems Management, finally retiring in 1976 as a Lt. Colonel. He currently resides in Hampton, Virginia, and in the 1990s, renewed his interest in flying by joining the Old Dominion Squadron of the CAF (see photo). They fly WWII aircraft at air shows for the public to enjoy. In 2009 he received The Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award and in the same year was inducted into the Bowling Green State USA ROTC Hall of Fame. Charles currently enjoys his NAWCC membership as an “Old Timer”. Like many of us, he has found the need to pass on most of his clocks to another generation of collectors. Like Charles, we are encouraged by some younger blood in the NAWCC, and it is to Charles and renewed collecting enthusiasm that we dedicate this Auction catalog.

997

Condition: Mahogany case with bird’s eye maple weight baffle. the clock is in excellent original condition with very minor scrapes on base molding and minor flaking on 12” diameter painted dial around mounting screws and winding arbor. Original hands. Nice damascened bob. The Howard weight is stamped “2”. Howard made many model 59 Vienna-style wall clocks, but few in this huge size. Ht 70”

Condition: the case has lost its original finish and a thin coat of lacquer applied without stain, so the clock does appear light to the eye. The maintenance man at Santa Fe reinforced the top rear of the door with a metal bracket (very nicely done) to keep it from splitting [a common problem with this case]. The movement is clean and running. The original dial has had artists fixative applied, however the base surface and numerals are all original; only a couple of minor flakes and minor fading of some minute numerals. Complete with mercury pendulum [special shipping required], original thumb print glass jars, and with much of the original gilding still showing on the lower carriage of the pendulum. Ht 75”

Regulator No. 16

Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, Conn., “Regulator No. 16” wall clock, 8 days, time only, brass weight driven movement earlier version mounted on the standard No. 3 bracket with center sweep seconds in a walnut case with black walnut back panel and burled highlights and painted metal dial, c1884 Condition: the case retains its original finish, nicely rubbed down. The upper left corner molding has a chip and indentation. The bottom three finials and finial block on center finial are replacements. There is old green and yellow paint on the back. The pendulum is a period European replacement and is not the proper Seth Thomas type. The lock catch is absent and the dial has been repainted. This clock after fitting proper pendulum and replacing bottom finials would be an excellent example. Ht 75” $8000-$10,000

Regulator No. 16 (variant)

J.H. Gerry, New York, N.Y., in case provided by Seth Thomas Clock Co. as a variant of “Regulator No. 16” with 8 days, time only, weight driven movement in walnut case with J. H. Gerry patent gravity escapement, c1885 Condition: this is generally good quality work, escapement changed and gravity arms added in the late 1800s to the square movement. This clock contains square form plates rather than the typical trapezoidal plates found in the standard Seth Thomas No. 16. The special glass dial signed “Gerry” shows small chips around the screw mounting holes, and some loss of paint. Note the clock runs reliably and with distinctive action of the gravity arms onto the brass keystone (pendulum hangs from the front of the movement) Also the keystone itself was replaced by the current owner, and not to the same standard as the balance of the work. A few screws have been replaced with heads that do not match. Still it is mechanically sound and will respond to additional refinement. Walnut case retains an old finish, with some losses (chip to top shell), but generally very good+ condition. Nickel reflector, weight, pulley and pendulum bob. Note also that this is one of the early “thin” cases, front to back. J.H. Gerry was an important figure in the development of the Self Winding Clock Co. Ht 76” $10,000-$15,000 129

No. 1 Regulator 1001

1002

Condition: the case retains its original finish and is in excellent condition. The Waltham signed dial has some very minor discoloration near perimeter. The weight has been extended. Original hands and beat scale. This is an outstanding example and includes a presentation plaque to “E.S. French from F.C. Dumaine, 1940”. Additional provenance is included. Ht 68”

Condition: the oak case has been refinished. The top crest & finials and bottom bracket are new, nicely reproduced by Joel Warren of Trumansburg, NY. The rear dust cover is missing behind the movements - although it operates as is, it should replaced. The large dials have been repapered, but the calendar and roller covers are original with very minor loss. This is a great looking clock and runs well. An all original one would bring nearly twice our high estimate. Ht 72”

Welch, Spring & Company

Austria

1003

1004

Condition: the case retains its excellent original finish. The four small ball finials on bottom are absent. There is a minor crack repair to bottom left trim. The dial has minor repair around center arbor and right winding arbor. There are hairlines between 4 & 5 and above left winding arbor. The pendulum rod is gold leafed. The brass crutch plate insert is absent. The key and beat scale are original. This is a rare example in unusually fine condition. Ht 66”

Condition: this particular clock is illustrated in Rick Ortenburger’s book titled VIENNA REGULATORS AND FACTORY CLOCKS (1990), page 51. Rick must have lost his notes on this clock, since it looks dark in the full photo but careful examination of the close up photo clearly shows the mahogany grain that matches the clock we have here. The inside of the case IS finished in black, but not the outside. If you have Rick’s book, you will see that the dial, hands and pulley all match the photo plus we know where the clock has been for the last 25 years. Best part of this clock is the unique early movement. which has a half plate to carry the great & first wheels and separate cocks for the next 3 arbors, and finally a bridge for the rear pivot of the verge. The 8 inch dial retains bright gilding, the center with nice engine turned pattern and the chapter area turned with fine grooves to avoid reflection. At first the Roman numerals seem a bit heavy for this time period, however a look at Kaltenböck’s book VIENNESE TIMEPIECES (1993), pages 182-183, will show other early examples with heavier numerals. Pendulum stick, suspension and rating assemblies are later, bob brass both sides. Glass is modern; seat board replaced. Hood sets on trunk by gravity. Hangs through hole in case. This is a large clock, Ht 62”

A. Rapf

Condition: the clock originally had its pendulum suspension bracket and movement mount fixed to a wall, separate from the wall mounted case, to ensure stability. The case now has an extra backboard for the mounting of movement and pendulum, which could be removed to restore it to its original configuration. Case has some looseness, but is complete, and in good condition overall. The front glass panel has a hole specifically drilled, protected with a grommet to allow for winding of the movement. Dial with minor darkening, and small spot of verdigris. Movement very good, with coat of old lacquer, dirty, would benefit from service.

BUYER’S AGENT: Some absentee bidders have in the past requested assistance and flexibility with their bidding. To some, this may be in the form of an independent set of eyes to validate the purchase they’re considering. To others, it may be in the form of executing a fixed budget in pursuit of several clocks - necessitating bidding flexibility, which the mechanics of proxy bidding (Left Bids with Auctioneer) cannot handle. Others are looking for additional services such as careful packing, and flexible delivery options.
