Antique American Clocks January 2020
329. $100
Atkins Clock Co. “London”, 1859-1879. The classic “London”, with a 16.5-inch rosewood-veneered case
in excellent condition, just a bit in need of cleaning on the base. Dial glass original with an intact surround, middle and
bottom glasses replacements. The painted metal dial is a disaster, touched up poorly, still peeling, and badly in need of repainting;
the hands are mismatched. The unsigned 8-day, time-and-strike movement is frozen solid and won’t run or strike. There
is a clear label inside. This may be a 15 or 30-day movement, as the springs are quite large. When in good shape and running
order these popular clocks sell for $175-$250. $100-$200.
