ment is signed, "H & H / A . 1 / Made In France". It is
dulum, original French hands, near
perfect one piece porcelain dial.
10.75" high, have four beveled
chip. Both doors have the original
Gold plated case is 11" high, slightly rounded on top, a
plain case as Ansonia crystal regu-
lators go, hence the low mini-
mum. The case is clean and lightly
polished, both doors have correct
knobs, four turned feet underneath
and it has four beveled glasses. All
the glasses are fine but the back
glass has a couple of tiny corner
chips. All the glasses seem loose
which leads me to believe the case
was disassembled for cleaning
and polishing. One piece porce-
lain dial is very good, correct pair of hands,
and the correct imitation mercury pendulum. One of the
glass vials is buggered a little, but there is no harm. 8
day signed movement runs and strikes a hanging gong
on half hours and hours. Ly-Ansonia #372. $300-$500.
tive wall clock, unlike any we have ever seen. There is
about 5" deep, and the depth of
case is 31" high, has full reeded
columns, baluster rows top and
viewing glass in the lower section.
The dial is wood with porcelain
numerals, and the original hands.
8 day gong striking movement is
complete and operational however
the pendulum appears to be a bit
longer metal rod. The early move-
case is complete, clean, polished, and appears to have
no replaced parts, at least none of significance. $300-
$500.
Collectors call the clock "Treasure Island". The label on
the back says it is "Treasure Duplex". This is a pretty
decent banjo, only a couple of flaws. The
bowed glass over the dial is missing. One of
our roaming clock dealers put this clock off
on me and promised to send the correct
glass. Now he won't even answer his
emails. Wait until the next time he visits
the pawn shop. You can order the bowed
glasses from Timesavers or any of the supply
houses, and that will complete the clock.
The original hanger on the back has been
replaced with a makeshift hanger, but it
works fine. The solid mahogany case is
39" high, has solid brass eagle, side rails,
and bezel. Both glasses are original, same
with the pendulum bob, latches, etc. The
movement is 8 day, two rod duplex strike.
Perfect metal dial is signed, hands are correct.

1909. There is a lot of potential for this clock, but it
black paint is missing. That is an
easy fix. The 16" oak case is
repairman list as I am, I could do
value of the clock substantially,
but I will not deprive you of the
and strikes the hours on four bells. We did not run the
movement or chimes; they are complete and come with
a correct pendulum and a key. The Sonora movement is
marked 90A, I do not see right off a number on the run-
ning movement. Ly-Seth Thomas #432. $300-$500.
1904. First made in 1880 with
"Rosalind" statue on top of the
case. Later made without her
statue, but instead a small cast
bust of her below the dial.
Both models had her in full
length adorning each end of
the case. The enameled
iron case is 15.25" wide
and 12.25" high, probably
repainted, but the gold was
not put back in the etchings. I have been told it is sim-
ple to put the gold in the etched designs, but I am not
that simple. Beveled glass, brass sash, brown and gold
dial, correct hands, and an open escapement. The
movement is 8 day, striking hours and half hours on a
gong, access the pendulum hanger from underneath,
correct pendulum taped to the back of the case, and
most of an original label on the back that identifies this
as the "Rosalind". For some reason the label reads,
"One Day Strike". Not true, it is 8 days. Ly-Ansonia,
page 269. $300-$500.
What a shock when this clock came in. I thought it was
powering a seat board mounted
for the brass movement is not signed, but it is original
to the case. The two piece painted dial is good, correct
hands, and brass dial rings. I cannot say for certain that
the nice brass pendulum or the iron weights are original
to the clock, and I feel certain that the dial board was
replaced. It is still an unusual and very early clock. Ly-

ca 1881. This is another unusual walnut cased clock,
24" high, with some very prominent,
eye catching characteristics. Tulip
finials, six of them, around the
top, a lot of etched designs, and
just some very attractive case
configurations. The glass is origi-
nal and identical to the one shown
on this clock in the books. Partial
label on the back. Outstanding
Gilbert cut glass and brass pendu-
lum, nickeled Cathedral gong

attractive clock. Ly-Gilbert

The polished brass case is 9.75" tall, clean, with light
wear and/or tarnish, but still has a good look. It has four
very good beveled glasses, no chips
or cracks, front and back doors with
original knobs. Two jar imitation

dial is signed by Ansonia. Round 8
