New Haven Clock Co. hanging clock, “12 Inch Drop Octagon”, ca 1929. Do you notice anything different about this schoolhouse clock? Not only does it have the octagon top but it has an octagon dial. The only one I have ever seen. They took a gallery clock and put a base/drop on it. The oak case is 21 ½ inches tall, clean and all original. It has a good glass, correct hands, pendulum, and an 8-day time only movement that is running. Ly-Seth Thomas #593. $75-$150.

Ithaca Calendar Clock Co. shelf clock, “No. 14 Granger”, ca 1884. I have only sold one of this model in 44 years and I cannot find where one has sold at any other auction anywhere. Therefore, I assume it must be rare. The walnut case is 25 inches tall, complete, clean and all original. I believe the clean dial is also original as are the hands, nickel pendulum, door latch, and all internal parts. On the back is a complete paper label. The 8-day movement is running, striking the coil gong and calendar is changing properly. Ly-Calendar #352-A. 400-$600.

Both dials are original and in very nice condition. The dial pans, dial board, hands, pendulum, door latch, and gong, all appear to be original Waterbury stock. On the back are remnants of three paper labels, lots of paper loss to each. The 8-day movement is running, striking and changing the calendar.

New Haven Clock Co. mirrorside mantel clock, “Occidental”, ca 1895 or 1911. Oak case is 24” high, has gilt ornaments, pair of old mirrors on the sides, and an original painted glass in the door. It has been darkened, OR age darkened it and they left it dark. It looks better to me dark. The dial is original and has some paint loss in places. Good brass dial rings, pendulum bob, gong base, case ornaments top and bottom, and original cupid statues. One statue is flying with only one wing. I doubt you would have noticed if I had not told you. The case is clean, the four finials are original, and the carved top piece is original. 8-day movement is running very strong, striking the Cathedral gong on half hours and hours. There is a complete label on the back. Ly-New Haven, page 311.    $200-$350.

Ansonia Clock Company, Royal Bonn clock, “La Gard”, ca 1901. This clock looks very small, probably because it is 10.75 inches high and a nice little clock. It is clean as a pin, polished, perfect condition, and signed properly on the back of the case. Decorated in rich tints of green, and with painted flowers and gold accents placed around the case. The clock has all its original parts including the sash with a flat glass, signed paper dial, hands, brass back door, pendulum bob and key, Cathedral gong, and the 8-day brass movement. Everything is clean, polished, signed where it should be, and operating as intended. Ly-Ansonia #2534. $75-$150.

Ansonia Clock Company, Royal Bonn cased clock, “La Vendee”, ca 1904. I could never keep this model long for the decorators and wives of my customers would snatch them up. You must admit it has bundles of style points. It is large at 14.5 inches high and is 13 inches wide. Very colorful with various shades of pinks and greens, painted figures of Dutch women on the front, and the usual smattering of gold highlights. Model name and Royal Bonn logo painted on the back with red paint and then fired into the clay. The metal back door is missing but someone put a wooden door in its place. There is a pendulum bob, key, signed 8-day movement that is running, a gong, and all are correct for the clock. On the front is the sash with beveled glass, two-piece porcelain dial, hands, open escapement, all original or as they should be for the clock. The case and movement are clean and ready to display and run. Why is it so cheap, because of a small crack on the front just to the right of the two women. Ly-Ansonia, page 638. $150-$300.

Ithaca Calendar Clock Co. shelf calendar clock, “No. 10 Farmer’s”, ca 1880. Walnut case is 25” high, is clean and polished, but some smoke is still hanging on, in places. It looks good, has all its original parts and pieces including the ornate top that is generally broken, repaired, or even replaced. Even the old dials are original, slightly soiled and crinkled, but so nice I should not have mentioned the dials. The two movements are original and functional, running, striking a coil gong, and calendar changing. A perfect label remains on the backboard. Ly-Calendar #346. $300-$500.
