Ansonia Clock Co. "O.G. Weight", ca 1880's.

Ansonia Clock Co. "O.G. Weight", ca 1880's. One day weight clock is running and striking a coil gong each hour. The full backboard label shows the New York City address that Ansonia used to retail many of their clocks. This clock is of interest to Kentucky collectors because of a small inside label indicating it was probably sold by a Monticello, Kentucky dealer. 26 inches walnut veneer case is solid, veneer is tight with a minimum of tiny nicks. 8 inches zinc dial is slightly faded but very clean. Period weights and pendulum. The glasses look to be original, the bottom scraped of what paint was left. Ly-Ansonia, page 431.
