Antique American Clocks July 2020
117. $250
Ansonia “Victoria”, ca. 1920. This is an uncommon clock from Ansonia, I can find no sales
records but it is listed in Ly’s book on Ansonia clocks on page 219. The solid oak case is just over 34 inches in length, the
book calls for 36 inches; the base appears to be missing some bottom trim. They also made a smaller version of this model called
the Panama. Both glasses are original, the lower glass is beveled. The porcelain dial is signed and shows light wear,
the hands are correct. The signed 8-day, time-and-strike movement is running and striking a cathedral gong on the hours and
half-hours; the strike is very rapid and needs adjustment. Note the carvings in the case. $250-$500.
