Default Re: Smith Electric Wired Mantle Clock Art Deco 1930s - help removing back plate

My best guess is the Bakelite has swelled ever so slightly due to moisture in the air, and what was a clearance fit is now not, but please wait for a second opinion from someone with more of a clue before proceeding.

Does the starter spin freely?
