Title: Clocks and LOTS of them!
Post by: olecanalantiques on December 07, 2010, 05:16:11 PM
WARNING! THIS THREAD MY GET LONG!!!

I have never been much into NON Advertising clocks such as the PAM's and others like them. I have a lot of nice old clocks which i know nothing about so i figured i would get my friends here at A-S to help me sort them out and maybe get the value on a couple them!!

I'll start it off with these two here, They are Ansonia's i beleive but they made so many different types it's hard for me to pin down the model let alone value!

Maybe that link should be on the Special Threads and Exceptional Information board?  Anyone agree?

   Yea a good one, I had this added to my favorite a while back, this site was brought up before here.  I know little to nothing about clocks, but before this thread is done I'll bet we will all be experts  ;)  Thanks ole

olecanal, your best bet would be to find a "best match" one from a supplier such as, to wit: 

http://woodworker.com/3-14x3-12-embossed-onlay-oak-mssu-113-360.asp

and paint it to match
