221.     $50

Ansonia Clock Co. Octagon lever, 6 in, ca. 1880.  An 8.5-inch diameter case with rosewood veneer in good shape.  The glass in the bezel is beveled; the dial has the original paint with some touch-up, cracking, and chipping. The hands are probably replacements.  The movement is signed and includes an hourly strike; I think it is an 8-day movement, it is running and striking on cue.  There is a label on the back with considerable losses.  $50-$100.
