Antique American Clocks
Ansonia "Queen Elizabeth", ca. 1901.
A 37-inch oak case in an old finish with some alligatoring;
the finials look correct for the 1901 edition, as is the crest and base.
Door glass is old and wavy, there is a decal on the
bottom that is not original and could be removed with a razor blade.
Dial is paper with considerable foxing, the hands correct.
The 8-day, time and half-hour strike movement is signed and running, striking a cathedral gong.
Spring-driven.
in the pendulum stick has been repaired with scotch tape.
Decent label on the back.
On eBay oak models sell for $250-$300;
Horton's sold one a year ago for $250.
