*************************************************************
We pledge honest, quick, courteous personal service and communication.
*************************************************************



SIZE
19 1/2 inches tall; dogs are 18 inches.


DESCRIPTION
Tall, classic 18th century Boston example. Very desirable lemon top form with slipper feet. These are nearly identical to Schiffer et. al., plate 55A (Bower’s collection); probably the same maker. Superb early craftsmanship with seamed construction. Well matched log stops. Fine quality metal has slightly reddish cast. Museum quality American brasses in the finest investment grade condition. Offered with no reserve; we'll let the fair market set the price.

CONDITION
One of the log stops was repaired using a modern thread and nut. As you can see the dog irons are well worn. Do not be concerned: these irons will hold up to many more years of hard use. All in all condition is exemplary with few scratched, dents, and no sign of abuse.

Note that I was unable to unscrew the tops from the shaft so I won't be able to disassemble for shipping.

Details regarding condition are manifest in the photos. Please examine the photos carefully. I promise to respond promptly to email questions.


SHIPPING
$20 anywhere in continental US includes packing and full insurance.

FOREIGN BUYERS-- PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR TERMS, OPTIONS, AND SHIPPING QUOTES PRIOR TO BIDDING.

We have zero tolerance for bid retractors; all bid retractions will be forwarded to trust and safety for investigation.

Most of our auction items are offered without reserve and sold as-is. ALL SALES ARE FINAL unless we have erred regarding age, authenticity, or description of defects. (Please note that tone is subjective with musical instruments and therefore NOT a valid reason for returning an item).

I am human-- so mistakes in condition or description can occur. If there is any sort of problem buyers must contact us within 48 hours of receipt of package. Buyer assumes all shipping costs in the case of returned items. In addition, we charge a 10% restocking fee for returned items.

Payment is due within 10 days of the close of the sale unless prior arrangement is made.

We pledge to be prompt, polite, considerate, and conscientious about communication both before and after the sale. We prefer personal communication and invoicing via the Email address listed with Ebay rather than Ebay automated systems. WE CANNOT COMMUNICATE IF YOU USE SPAM BLOCKING SOFTWARE. IF YOU WISH TO PARTICIPATE IN OUR SALES PLEASE DISABLE YOUR SPAM BLOCKER!

We reserve the right to void any sale in which the buyer violates our terms. We also reserve the right to void any sale whose integrity has been undermined by EBAY or server outages, malicious/disingenuous bidders, or other disruptive acts of fate.
