    Patent number date is 1933. Applied for in 1931
    Clock is 6 1/2" tall and don't know what the wood is either.

    Wood is mahogany. Plug is a typical replacement type so no help in dating.

    Thanks Pat,
    The tag with the patent dates from 1930 to 1947.
    This paper tag is similar to the one dated for 1932. So i am taking an educated guess and saying nothing lol

    Funny their title says walnut wood, but in the description it is called maple wood.

    That's awesome.
    Here she is all cleaned up.
    Changed the cord, polished a bit, cleaned the glass inside & out.
