223.         $200

Ansonia Clock Co. “Queen Elizabeth”, ca. 1901.  This is the later and most common version of this popular model.  The 37-inch oak case has an old, dark finish; the finials all look correct, although the half-urns on the crest appear to be replacements.  The door glass is period/original, the dial is signed paper, clean but with wear, and has been touched up.  The hands are period and correct.  The signed 8-day, time and half-hour strike movement is running, out of plumb, and striking on an Ansonia cathedral gong.  There is a good label on the back.  AAC sold an oak Queen Elizabeth in 2022 for $250.  $200–$300.
