This is a 1907 National Cash Register Lever Model 188 and is in beautiful physical condition. The wood base is beautiful, the top sign is original and the drawer is original to the register also. The production tag under drawer matches the serial number. Up until recently, this register was working fine until my friend’s 5 year old granddaughter touched something and now he cannot get the handle to turn. My research shows there were very few of these registers produced and even fewer are known to be in existence as of now. This is truly a conversation starter and one of the nicest NCR Registers I have ever seen. Sure to highlight any room you decide to display it in.

Hello and welcome to another of my listings!! Today for your consideration is this exceedingly rare Seth Thomas “Bell over” Yacht Clock! This antique striking ships clock is one of the hardest to find examples of ships clock by Seth Thomas and it is currently running and lost a few minutes over the course of a few hours, strongly recommend a full service as I’m unsure what it has been doing for the last 40 years or so. It dates to about the 1890’s I believe and it is a nice piece looks good generally. It has what I would say it has moderate to heavy wear, though it displays well still with a lot of character. This includes but is not limited to dings, dents, loss of virtually all nickel plating, scratches and wear, old repairs and anything else I can’t account for, etc… It is missing one of the wall hooks on the back, the lower one to be it has some sort of penciled in family province on the back. The dial is not bad for age, has the wear expected… Some loss of black wax to inset numerals, discoloration spots on the silvered dial. It strikes correctly, and the strike button works as well, the door closes a bit tight and you can hear the glass get close when you do but I haven’t had any issues yet with it. The bezel is bent a bit out of shape, you can see it in the photos. Please see my photos as they can describe this clock better than I can!! Comes with a brass key. All in all, this is a handsome and very rare Seth Thomas striking ships clock that would be a great gift and or a fine addition to any collection after servicing!
