Antique American Clocks January 2021
35. $125
Atkins Clock Co. “London”, 1859-1879. A second example, this one with a bit crustier finish
and an older mirror (possibly original). The dial glass is original and the backing on the gold corner spandrels shows no losses. The painted dial is period with some chipping. I’m having difficulty getting the 8-day unsigned movement to run steady, but
I think it just needs to be worked in. The label differs from that found in #34 but the company is the same. Overall,
another nice example with some finish issues. $125-$175.
