Antique American Clocks                      July 2020

305.    $10

Ansonia Clock Co. steeple, 1870.  A 20-inch steeple with little to recommend it.  The rosewood veneer is missing in places and chipped in others, the tablet is repainted crudely on the front of the lower glass.  Both glasses are old, as is the metal dial.  Hands are replacements, finial tips broken.  The 30-hour movement is unsigned but is running and striking a wire gong.  Bits and pieces of the label.  $10-$25.
