Front. I believe this clock represents Thomas Jefferson, but I am not sure. It has a cast case front that is 12 5/8 inches tall. The dial is labeled "Regent Mfg. Co., Chicago". Regent made many clocks of this type.
Patent date September 22, 1885 on the rear movement cover. The movement was made by Western Clock Mfg. Co., LaSalle, Illinois, USA (they later became Westclox).
