Condition: overall the clock portion is excellent with a superior original dial. The canister appears to have been overpainted many years ago, preserving the gilt underneath. The doll is old, perhaps a replacement, been repainted and with an old oxidized wire harness to hang it. Seems to tick OK. For details, see Tran Ly's book on Ansonia, (1998) page 64, figures 102-103. Height 8 inches
