160.    $150

Atkins Clock Co. “London”, 1859-1879.  This is a beautiful example of this elegant clock.  The rosewood veneer is practically perfect; both glasses appear to be original, as does the painted dial.  The 8-day time-and-strike movement is unsigned, as is typical, and is running, although the strike side is extremely reluctant to awaken.  There is an excellent label inside.  The alarm is untested.  $150-$300.
