Thank you Delia!!!
Hi Delia,
Thank you very much. My apologies, I was not at the physical location the time of my initial request and was working on limited information. I can now provide additional photos.
I’m not a clock expert, therefore I’m unsure of the depth. I’ve decided to only have 4 appraised and will keep at the rest. Please review the revised photos.
