I tracked down the provenance of the clock

The clock was placed in the Joseph Loth Company Building in 1903. This was built as a factory for the hat business.

The building is located at 25 Grand Street in Norwalk, Ct. It is now called Clocktower Close and serves as a condo complex.

Lots of distribution parts for Seth Thomas and Howard clocks

The clock came with a bunch of distribution parts.

I think I will sell them on ebay.

Howard #2 Tower Clock is now in my garage

I gave it a quick wash to remove dust and it looks like the paint is shot on the base and legs. I will definitely strip the paint and restore those parts. Not sure about top parts yet, but they will probably also be restored to match.
