[Killerbees]

I have seen one just like it. Marble with the mythological battle scene right?

Who is the mfg? Country of origin? Anything.

[cleller]

That Red Skelton was a swell boy-o.

[SoonerAtKU]

I think Red Skelton would have done well in a movie like Waterworld. Just my humble opinion.

[pphilfran]

Any kind of marking or labels on the back?

[badger]

Set the clock to 10:04 p.m. at a Back to the Future convention and you might be onto something :P

[rock on sooner]

Sure are a bunch of comedians...I have no idea what it's worth.

[olevetonahill]

This is not very scientific, but I went over to Ebay and entered "antique clock", and scrolled thru a few pages. Lots of old clocks over there, but most just run in the $100-$200 range.

Old clocks are impressive to look at, but I imagine there are just a lot out there. In the old days, everyone had one. Since they were kept up where they could be taken care of, a lot of the them survived in good shape and got passed down. They were too nice to throw away, so everyone has one sitting around, or stashed in a closet. I've got one about 5 feet away from me right now.

On the other hand, I know nothing about clocks.

Vet, maybe check with a clock repair shop. They might have knowledge
or could give you a referral.

Next time I go to Ft Smith I may take it If I can remember

[StoopTroup]

It's a Parthenon Clock. I think EBAY or the internet should be of help if the folks in Arkansas tell you "WTF is that?".

[StoopTroup]

Also...who it's made by and if it's working or ever been restored will have everything to do with it's value. My Father and I went antiquing when we lived in Michigan and I had a Friend (Dana-RIP) that used to fix and repair old clocks as well as pocket watches.

Just a quick search for mantle clocks revealed this one....

That one looks like it been refinished and the seller says it's in bad shape...much worse than yours....but you'll need to find a real expert to find out if you have a $50-250 Clock or a rare item that would bring 100's more.

[Curly Bill]

Them boys on Pawn Stars will give ya 50 cents for it!

He'll take $249, but would prefer payment in tangible assets like skins, jerky, pork bellies, or football tickets.
