This is a Mid 1970’s model 4802 Howard Miller grandfather clock “floor clock” that I’m going to service and get working again.
Clock movement imported from Germany.
I won the bid for the clock for $875.
I contacted Howard Miller and was informed the S/N matched a 1970’s 88″ tall 5 tubular weight driven floor clock.
My movement is a No. 190 Westminster 5 Tubular Chime Weight-driven Arabic numbered.
