Thanks KC for your helpful information. 
You say these are 1970's era clocks? Do you know if there is a particular model number for those clocks?

I went to check out this clock today and it is in like new condition. I couldn't find a model # on it. The only number that I found was on a plate on the inside of the dial door.....HOWARD MILLER # 247-362.
The lady who is selling it is in her 70's and she said she got it from her parents who apparently bought it new.

I thank you for all of your helpful advice and information.
The clock is being sold by a private party and not a dealer. I must admit that I am surprised that a clock like this is potentially worth less than $200.00. I realize that it is not a great antique but cheap China made quartz grandfather clocks that you find at large discount stores sell for close to $200.00.
Wouldn't this clock most likely have a German movement?
According to the seller the size of this clock is 78" tall and 15" wide.

Thank you for the additional info.
Where will I find the date of manufacture on the clock? I am going to look at it tomorrow. According to the seller the clock is in excellent condition..but that can be debatable considering the sellers idea of what excellent is.
When I asked about what model it was all she could tell me was a No. 150 which, as much as I have learned, is the movement model number.
How big a difference does the date of manufacture make in the value? If it is in excellent condition would $200.00 be a fair price?

I am thinking about buying a grandfather clock that the seller is asking $200.00 for. They have it listed as as a Howard Miller Grandfather clock with a No. 150 Westminster movement. The sparse info that I have been able to find online is that it is perhaps a Howard Miller/ Barwick Grandmother Clock possibly model #4878. I haven't seen the clock yet, I have only spoken with them on the phone about it.
Can anyone provide any additional info or a value?
Thanks

Picked this up at a junk store and I am curious as to when it might have been made. I'm thinking 1930's to 1940's...........right or wrong???
