L Size Experimental

S# 150,002 - An experimental movement, one of two L Size movements made with going barrel and exposed winding wheels. The name "Eustis" appears in place of "E. Howard & Co.," after the name of a street adjacent to Howard's home, and suggesting that Howard regarded these movements as of lesser quality than his normal production (all of which, except for the ladies' movements, had safety barrels). Even the serial number is unusual, being one of a "run" of two, sitting astride a huge gap between the end of the normal Model 1874 production runs at S# 105,200, and the beginning of the Model 1881 production at S# 200,001. |
