“Terry Clock Co. movement in this case is a 30-hour, time and alarm. It alarms on an iron bell. Typical of small Terry movements it has a stationary pendulum, and it is running robustly. The rosewood veneered case is 9 3/8 inches tall, and like many we have photographed so far, has a gilt door. The gilt has been redone. The veneer around the base is all there but some is slightly warped. There are two original glasses, original painted metal dial, replaced hands, iron bell and key. The collector of these first 100 clocks was very particular about the clocks he owned. He had a note in this case that it was possibly a marriage, Terry movement in an Ansonia case. I laid this clock and #29 side by side and they are not identical, but are close. Don’t forget during the 1850-1870 period The Terry’s were part owners of Ansonia. I don’t think it is a marriage. $75-$150.

The paint is still very good on the original metal dial, hands are replaced, good old pendulum and key, and as usual, a super nice label. The case has a 30-hour time only movement, and it is running.

“Wm. L. Gilbert & Co., Winchester, Conn.”, wood mantel clock, “Rose Gilt”, ca 1885. The gilt around the door is original gilt and has some loss. The glasses appear to be original as is the painted metal dial. Hands are replaced. Excellent label, old pendulum and key, and a 30-hour time only movement that is running. The rosewood veneered case is good and stands 9 ¼ inches tall. Ly-Gilbert #1071. $75-$150.

UPDATE:  Patrick Hagans was kind to let us know that the movement in this clock is unusual - it is one attributed to Silas B. Terry, who worked for Gilbert from 1859-1861.  It is a double-ladder movement with the spring behind the backplate.
