Catalog Description:
C.1880, Ansonia "Crystal Palace\', less dome. This is a very clean example, except for the absence of the dome. Regains original dial, pendulum, statues, etc. The statues are of a hunter (with flintlock rifle), and a fisher-woman, with net. The gilding is virtually all worn away on the statues, leaving an aged look. Runs and strikes, but needs cleaning; see Palmer"s "Treasury of American Clocks\', page 201, for the same model and statues. Height 17\'
