I recently posted an old cuckoo clock I repaired to full working order then I saw another that had the chains pulled too hard and were stuck in movement, so I stripped down removed and cleaned movement before re assembly and oiling, spent some time rubbing case parts down to bare wood and then re stained, bellows were both torn so replaced the paper on tops from a homemade template and ordered a new dial as original 70mm but decided I liked an 80mm instead so put that on anyway all in great working order and movement like new with no wear on pivot holes at all it couldn't of run for long considering its age Im guessing maybe 40's as after 1950 Im told the rear countwheel was put inside the movement..
