Cuckoo Clock

[ifs]

There are chains that connect the pieces in the second picture to the clock. Not sure how to operate it or if it is in working condition. Can anyone identify this clock or can help place a value on it. I'm thinking of selling it for around $20 or a little less.

Not sure I have any ideal of value on clocks, but is it wood and or plastic,  Looks to be a tourist black forest type clock, like what I bought when stationed in germany in the eary 80's.

I agree with ironlord .

If it everything works while pendulum swings , $20 (on a good day ) .

It's made of wood. The pinecones in the second picture are solid and quite heavy for their size although I'm not sure what they are made of.

pinecones are cast iron , ifs .

Have one similar....made in Germany traditionally.  Have the one my dad brought back while in service in the 40's.  Pine cone weights used to run the clock.

The ones on that website are really expensive! If I get mine working do you think I can sell for a good price? Maybe $30-60?

I peeked around at that site a bit too and they have wonderful looking clocks.  But you clock seems kinda plain and small compared to them and most I have seen.   But depends on how you sell your clock, can make a difference in what you get for it.   I may be totally off here and because you clock is small then maybe it could yield a preimum price.  I know little here except for what I see sale on line and in the flea markets and etc.
