FOR SALE: Turn of the Century Herschede clock

Selling for a friend who moved out of state. Here's what I know. just a hair under 8 ft. 5 tubes marked Herschede, Westminster chimes on the quarter.


3 weights, I think 8-day.
Works marked "Germany" on back plate.
Name of company on face is JC Grogan, Pittsburg which dates it prior to 1911.

"436" on back of case. Gorgeous, well-kept, non-smoking home.

Serviced recently.
You will have to pick it up in Pittsburgh.
Asking price is $30,000.

Can I please get some comments on this clock if you know Herschede clocks? The Seller is convinced it was made around 1911 or earlier, I'm not sure. I heard even though Herschede used German movements that it should be stamped Herschede as well as "Germany." Thanks very much!
He said he bought it at a high-end shop in Pittsburgh for $27,000.00 in 1990. OK, so cut that in half. But still, is it an original. The face plate does not date it, right? No "h" in Pittsburg.
