Question
What does this information mean on the back sticker: Movement E,  Finish Prov.  It's a model 132, serial # 10289 and I'm trying to find out the value, but I need to know what those letters mean.

Answer
Info describes clock to Ridgeway - does not help you determine value-- you have actual clock! Condition and age determines value more in an older modern clock and the letters do not help you. Worth lot less that originally paid. Ridgeway made $10K clocks and $500 grandfater clocks- figure value at @$1200- probably close- or get a local dealer or furniture dealer to comment.
